Abstract

The influences of alpha particles' energy and angle of incidence on the readout obtained from cellulose nitrate plastic track detectors, exposed to materials emitting alpha particles, have been studied as a function of etching time. Simple detection equipment has been developed to allow precision measurement of superficial alpha activity. The technique has been applied to determine the air concentration of an alpha emitting suspended paniculate, after deposition onto Millipore filters.
