Film autoradiography used for hot particle identification

Journal of Radioanalytical and Nuclear Chemistry Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

Two types of films were tested and compared for the purposes of film autoradiography. Commercial black and white photographic film proved to have the highest sensitivity and the best resolution. The film was calibrated by specially prepared sources that contained alpha- and beta-emitting isotopes in the form of particles. Application examples for hot particle identification using the developed film autoradiographic technique are given.
