The problem (II)
●Easy to fold
●Difficult to unfold
€
r(Eγ ) ≈ f (Eγ ) = u1 ⋅R1(Eγ ) + u2 ⋅R2(Eγ )
u(Eγ ) = unfold r(Eγ ) with all R(Eγ )
f (Eγ ) = R j (Eγ )u j
j
∑ = R ⋅u ⋅dE∫
known = r known unknown

Alternative solution
●Exploit that we know how to fold:
●Control by iteration:
€
f =Ru
€
(i) First trial function :u0 = r
(ii) First folded spectrum: f 0 =Ru0
(iii) Correct for how much we fail : u1 = u0 + (r − f 0)
(iv) Second folded spectrum: f1 =Ru1
(v) The third trial function : u2 = u1 + (r − f1 )
and so on until f i ≈ r.

Compton subtraction method
We define the Compton spectrum c = r - v,
where photo-peaks (=u) + s.e. + d.e. + 511 keVare subtracted from the raw spectrum. The u-spectrum is obtained from about 30 iterations and has large fluctuations.Next step is to smooth c, and subtract it from the raw spectrum giving an unfolded spectrum with fluctuations comparable with the raw spectrum. For further details, see NIM-paper.
