\maketitle

\begin{abstract}
To provide meaningful, interpretable results, gamma-ray spectrometers must be calibrated.
Here, a procedure is outlined for calibrations of spectroscopic gamma-ray from high-purity germanium (HPGe) detectors.
In particular, ordinary least squares regression is performed between electronic signals resulting from measurements of standard gamma-ray sources and their known energies.
The calibration procedure is demonstrated using five common lab sources.
The resulting relationship between channel number and energy shows to generalize well within the energy range of interest.
The methods presented in this paper are broadly applicable to HPGe detectors, as well as other standard spectroscopic gamma-ray detectors.
