Radionuclide metrology, and in particular, activity standardization, is based on well-established measurement techniques that have been used and improved for decades. The methods and the achievable uncertainty are, however, very dependent on the type of radiation that is emitted and the quality of the available decay data. A major part of the EMPIR project “PrimA-LTD” consists in developing new primary techniques and in particular the high-resolution spectrometry of ²⁴¹Am, ¹²⁹I and ⁵⁵Fe using magnetic microcalorimeters (MMCs). The presentation will focus on the experimental details including the MMC detector setup, sample preparation and planned spectral measurements with more than 108 counts and energy thresholds below 50 eV.
