ratus especially recommends this system for use as a process control device. The scintillation detector used in the present system could be replaced by a proportional counter with little loss in sensitivity and resolution and the x-ray unit could be replaced by a beta-excited lowenergy x-ray source (6). In this way a rugged, inexpensive, process control unit could be constructed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
