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
The effect of sample vial type and sample composition on the Cerenkov count rate detected from 32P and 36Cl was studied using a liquid scintillation counter. When counting was done in the noncoincident mode, glass vials allowed higher counting efficiency than plastic vials. In the coincident mode li
