Abstract:
The liquid scintillation counting system recently constructed for absolute activity measurement was introduced, and it uses TDCR method to measure activity of β nuclide. The system is equipped with three PMTs connected to a de-focusing voltage divider base developed by ourselves. After varying the efficiency by de-focusing of the PM tube, the activity of the
3H source was determined. The analysis of uncertainty and discussion of measurement result were given. The activity determined with TDCR is in agreement with certified value within the range of 0.9%. The combined uncertainty of results is 0.6% (
k=1).
