摘要:
A method and a liquid scintillation counter for measuring a sample, a mixture of the specimen to be analysed and a scintillator, in a liquid scintillation counter where the sample (14) is measured with two photo multiplier tubes (23, 24) situated on different sides of the sample. The photo multiplier tubes situated on different sides of the sample operate in coincidence. Asymmetric samples are measured in such a way that the counting efficiency is measured with the photo multiplier tubes (23, 24) operating in coincidence ad calculated using the amount of coincidence pulses, whereas the amplitude and the pulse height distribution are measured only with one photo multiplier tube (23 or 24).
摘要:
A method for correcting measuring values when measuring liquid scintillation samples deposited on sample plates by a photodetector which will be affected by scintillation photons from other samples in the plate in addition to the sample being measured. Said correction is done by pre-determining affection of the other samples of the plate as a function of quench level and correcting observed measuring values using this information.
