Fundamentals of Liquid Scintillation Course
(A 3.5 Day Course)
JANUARY 11 - 14, 2010
Background
Liquid Scintillation Counting for many radiochemistry laboratories has often been an underutilized instrument. The origin of the lack of use can be traced back to a time when LSC instrument backgrounds were ten times that of a gas flow proportional counter. Today's instruments now rival background measurement for "traditional" beta and alpha counting. Another reason for lack of use can also be traced to a very limited amount of formal training on the calibration and use.
Key Concepts
This important 3.5 day event will focus on an in-depth view of general LSC calibration and counting concepts (with an emphasis on tritium, other low energy beta emitters) and will provide an over view of the latest techniques for achieving appropriate results. This course also presents an overview of radiochemistry lab processes and pitfalls.
How You'll Benefit from This Course
In this course you will:
Consult with seasoned experts on Liquid Scintillation problems and challenges
Develop a deeper knowledge of LSC instrument performance.
Develop a better understanding of LSC Advantages and Disadvantages.
Receive references to deepen your understanding of scintillation principles in radiochemistry needed to support the needs of the nuclear industry.
Learn about concepts being applied in around the world.
