Description/Abstract:
TO STUDY THE APPLICABILITY OF A LARGE WELL CRYSTAL FOR THE MEASUREMENT OF RADIOISOTOPES IN ENVIROMENTAL SAMPLES, A SAMPLE WAS OBTAINED WHICH WOULD HOLD A 500 ML POLYETHYLENE SAMPLE BOTTLE. THE INCREASE IN SENSITIVITY RESULTING FROM THE USE OF THIS LARGE CRYSTAL SIMPLIFIED AND INCREASED THE PRECISION OF THE MEASUREMENT OF RADIOISOTOPES IN ENVIRONMENTAL AND OTHER "LOW LEVEL" SAMPLES
