Description
With proportional flow counters low-level tritium can be measured with small counter volumes. The air is mixed with a counting gas, which is usually methane. It is possible to add about 20 to 30% of air to methane without a serious loss in good counter characteristics. In this paper are presented the properties of proportional counter techniques in monitoring airborne tritium. (author)
