FATIGUE IN SCINTILLATION COUNTING

Journal Article · · U.S. Geol. Survey. Profess. Papers
OSTI ID:4814036
The cause of fatigue in scintillation counting was studled. Experiments indicated that photomultiplier fatigue may be primarily caused by bremsstrahlung resulting from the interaction of beta particles with glass ampoules. (M.C.G.) Scientific notes and summaries of investigations prepared by members of the Geologic and Water Resource Divisions of the United States Geological Survey in the fields of geology, hydrology and allied sciences are presented. One hundred and forty six papers are included. Separate abstracts were prepared for five papers. (M.C.G.)
