  • Abstract
    In this paper a complete and self-consistent method for 90Sr determination in environmental samples is presented. It is based on the Cherenkov counting of 90Y with a conventional liquid scintillation counter. The effects of color quenching on the counting efficiency and background are carefully studied. A working curve is presented which allows to quantify the correction in the counting efficiency depending on the color quenching strength.
