Abstract
An assessment is made of the importance of scattering within the sample for beta dose rate determination from beta counting by an NE102A plastic scintillator. Convenient methods of source preparation, calibration and interpretation of the measurements are described which can take account of widely varying sample composition. The dependence of the scattering effect on the mean atomic number of the sample is discussed.
