For measurement of thin metal foils and organic films in the range 10/ sup -2/--10/sup -6/ cm soft bremsstrahlung and characteristic x radiation that are created in tritium are used. A Geiger counter is used as the detector. It is shown that a sensitivity up to 3 x 10/sup -6/ gm/cm/sup 2/ can be obtained by selecting the wavelength of the characteristic radiation absorbed in the K, L, or M level of the foil material. An effective method for control of metal foils and opaque films in the mass region (5-30) x 10/sup -6/ gm/cm/sup 2/is proposed. (tr- auth)
