Zusammenfassung The international traceability of antimony 124, in term of activity, is very limited. The results of 124Sb activity measurements sent to the SIR (BIPM - International System of REference, BIPM.RI(II)-K1.Sb-124) are scare. Up to now, only three laboratories have contributed. Two of them acrried out measurements using the 4πβ-γ coincidence counting technique and the third one using the 4πγ method with a well-type crystal detector. The first two results are in agreement but the last one differs significantly from them, by 2 %. The decay scheme consistency cannot be axcluded when trying to explain those discrepancies. In other respects, this nuclide emits high-energy gamma rays, and then could be selected as a valuable standard radionuclide for the calibration of gamma-ray detectors in that energy range, given well known photon intensities. Those considerations led to the proposal of an international exercise and to the realisation of this Euromet project, registered as n° 907, coordinated by CEA/List-LNE/LNHB. The first part of this exercise was dedicated to activity measurements and to their comparison. For this purpose, participants were asked to make use of all the direct measurement techniques available in their laboratory in order to confirm or not the existence of possible biases specific to some measuring methods. In addtion, this exercise offered the opportunity of improving the uncertainties of the gamma-ray intensities. Then, participants were asked, in the second part of the previous published values and new decay scheme data are proposed. Eight international laboratories participated in this exercise.
