Abstract

A new 4πβ(LS)-γ digital coincidence counting (DCC) system has been developed at NIM. The system equipped with a triple-to-double coincidence ratio (TDCR) counter in the β-channel and a NaI(Tl) scintillation detector in the γ-channel. A dedicated DCC software was designed for off-line implementation of 4πβ(LS)-γ coincidence counting method. The software consists of three modules: software-based circuits module, dead-time and resolving-time correction module and efficiency extrapolation module, respectively. The performance of the newly developed 4πβ(LS)-γ DCC system was demonstrated by a comparison measurement of Co-60 solution with the conventional 4πβ(PC)-γ DCC system.
