Description

The prerequisites of the formation of Cherenkov radiation in the passage of beta radiation through a medium are described and the possibility of detecting some beta emitters in an aqueous medium by a liquid scintillation spectrometer is shown. The advantages and disadvantages of the detection method are presented and its parameters (detection efficiency, background, selectivity) are compared with those of commonly used methods. (author)
