During decommissioning, the initial cartography of all surfaces is crucial for identifying potential future waste based on its radiation level. Contamination detectors should be calibrated in terms of emission flux or Bq.cm-2 using suitable surface sources. Current standard sources, complying with ISO 8769 (Reference Sources-Calibration of Surface Contamination Monitors), lack...
