scintillation materials are useful in powder form and material in powder form
can provide a qualitative measurement of the luminosity and good measure-
ments of the time response and the scintillation emission spectrum.
Many scintillating materials have been used as radiation detectors; here
we show characteristics, see Table 4.1, of some often used in experimental
work and dierent applications. Let us describe some of them. High ash-
point EJ-309 liquid scintillator is an alternative to the commonly used EJ-301
(= NE213). EJ-309 has a ashpoint of 144°C and is not listed as dangerous goods
material. Its pulse shape discriminatio ...
