LIQUID SCINTILLATION COUNTING FOR TRITIUM AND CARBON-14

Journal Article · · Nuclear Power
OSTI ID:4296930

Problems involved in maeasuring low-energy beta emitters by liquid scintillation counters and their future applications in science and medicine are outlined. Scintillating solutions, a suspension technique, applications in tracer work, and future developments are discussed. A schematic is included of a single-channel counter that uses an EMI 13-stage photomultiplier type 9514S followed by an electronic amplifier with a maxiaaum gain of X 1000. (J.H.M.)
