THE IDENTIFICATION OF BETA-EMITTING ISOTOPES BY LIQUID SCINTILLATION COUNTING

摘要

The average energy of a beta-emitting isotope, in micro-micrpcurie amounts, may be measured at room temperature by means of the system described. The apparatus is useful for rapid quantitative routine analysis of beta-emitters required for biological purposes.nThe spectrometer which is briefly described is a simplified apparatus using standard Harwell equipment.
