Abstract
Cerenkov counting efficiencies for a large number of radionuclides formed by (n, γ) reactions and used in the field of activation analysis have been obtained by two different experimental procedures. A comparison between the Cerenkov counting technique and scintillation low-resolution gamma-ray spectrometry is also presented. Results are summarized in tables and briefly discussed.
