A WALK-THROUGH MONITOR FOR BETA-GAMMA SHOE CONTAMINATION

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4056097
A sensitive ""walk-through'' monitor was developed to detect beta-gamma contamination on the shoes of personnel exiting from a regulated area. The monitor is continuously compensated for changes in general background radiation; consequently it can detect as little as 100 cpm of betagamma contamination, even within the range of extraneous variable sources of radiation.
