  • Abstract
    The liquid scintillator, in just a few years of development, has shown itself to be an extremely versatile chemical system for radiation detection. Its evolution has been characterized by penetration into almost every phase of experimental science. A survey of the most notable applications of liquid scintillation counting is presented.
