Visualisation of interlaboratory comparison results in PomPlots

In this work a novel graphical method is applied to the presentation of intercomparison results. This is demonstrated with the results of a recent intercomparison in measuring the ¹³⁷Cs, ⁴⁰K, and ⁹⁰Sr activity concentration in milk powder. The “PomPlot”, an intuitive graphical method, is used for producing a summary overview of the participants’ results of a common measurand. The “PomPlot” displays (relative) deviations of individual results from the reference value on the horizontal axis and (relative) uncertainties on the vertical axis.
