“…The results with the quartz indicate that it is reasonably transparent to the photons, and it would be desirable to repeat the measurements using a photomultiplier with a quartz envelope. Richards and Cole (1951) have described experiments in which they observed scintillations ' when thin films of many different materials were irradiated by a-particles from a strong zlOPo source. The scintillations ' were only observed when the thickness of the film was less than the range of the a-particles in the material.…”
