A program is described which computes the counting efficiency of a beta-gamma ray emitter as a function of the figure of merit in liquid scintillation systems. A Monte Carlo scheme is used to simulate the gamma-ray interaction with a toluene-based scintillator. The results are valid for systems with
An improved counting vial for the measurement of low-energy gamma rays in liquid scintillation counters has been developed. In this vial the sample is separated from the scintillation cocktail. Within wide limits no correction is necessary for the height of the sample or for decreased efficiency in
