Abstract

The possibilities of the application of scintillation counters for the detection of electrons and analysis of beta spectra are described. The figures of merit and the uses in particular cases are pointed out. The setting-up of the scintillation spectrometer and the analysis of the beta spectra of some standard sources is described. The corrections of the beta spectra for resolution and backscattering are reported. Beta-gamma coincidence measurements on Rh 106 have been performed, and beta-gamma coincidences in Al 26 are reported. Finally, the possibilities of studying nuclear properties by means of beta scintillation counters, especially in the performance of beta-gamma angular correlations, are mentioned.
