Update of the BIPM comparison BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Y-88 of activity measurements of the radionuclide 88Y to include the 2016 result of the LNE-LNHB (France) and the 2019 result of the BEV (Austria)

Since 1976, 15 laboratories have submitted 39 samples of 88Y to the International Reference System (SIR) for activity comparison at the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM), with comparison identifier BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Y-88. Recently, the LNE-LNHB (France) and the BEV (Austria) participated in the comparison and the key comparison reference value (KCRV) has been updated. The degrees of equivalence between each equivalent activity measured in the SIR and the updated KCRV have been calculated and the results are given in the form of a table. A graphical presentation is also given. To reach the main text of this paper, click on Final Report. Note that this text is that which appears in Appendix B of the BIPM key comparison database https://www.bipm.org/kcdb/. The final report has been peer-reviewed and approved for publication by the CCRI, according to the provisions of the CIPM Mutual Recognition Arrangement (CIPM MRA).
