Interface for routine spectral display from several liquid scintillation counters

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7343215
An interfacing circuit for coupling several Tri-Carb liquid scintillation counters to a multichannel analyzer is described. The display of the analyzer is completely controlled from the liquid scintillation counters and information from any one of the three channels in each counter can be displayed. The system is being used for both instructional and diagnostic purposes. For the former it will be part of a course on the theory and use of liquid scintillation counting. For the latter it assists in setting up optimum counting conditions for single and double labels in new cocktails as well as for new labels, and to help diagnose counting problems such as chemi- and/or photoluminescence.
