About Book

Liquid Scintillation Counting (LSC) today is the most sensitive and widely used technique for the detection and quantification of radioactivity. This measurement technique is applicable to all forms of nuclear decay emissions (alpha and beta particle, electron capture, and gamma ray emitting radionuclides). Liquid scintillation counting is an analytical technique which measures activity of radionuclides from the rate of light photons emitted by a liquid sample.

The Liquid Scintillation: Science and Technology book, edited by Michael J. Kessler, Ph.D., presents the theory of liquid scintillation counting, including chapters addressing:

Applied spectrum analysis
Quenching and efficiently
Theory of dual label DPM measurements
Statistics of liquid scintillation counting
Sample preparation and sample oxidation
