  • Abstract
    The development of a liquid scintillation counting system has led to an evaluation of several multiplier phototube types, the comparison of a number of counting chamber surfaces, and an investigation of thermoelectric photocathode cooling. The results obtained, including the more important performance and electronic circuit characteristics of the system, are described.
