Liquid scintillation counting at the limit of detection in biogeosciences [PDF]
Liquid scintillation is widely used to quantify the activity of radioisotopes. We present an overview of the technique and its application to biogeosciences, particularly for turnover rate measurements.

The liquid-argon scintillation pulseshape in DEAP-3600 [PDF]
DEAP-3600 is a liquid-argon scintillation detector looking for dark matter. Scintillation events in the liquid argon (LAr) are registered by 255 photomultiplier tubes (PMTs), and pulseshape discrimination (PSD) is used to suppress electromagnetic ...

Scattering-free lanthanide-ionic liquid scintillators for high-resolution and adaptive X-ray imaging. [PDF]
X-ray imaging requires effective light transmission through scintillation screens. However, solid or solution-based scintillators suffer from photon scattering and attenuation. While prior efforts have focused on improving light extraction in solid-state

Preparation of Large Volume Solid Argon Crystal and Its Feasibility Test as a Scintillation Material
An important background to the liquid argon detectors is that they are caused by the diffusion of radioactive isotopes in a scintillator (liquid phase).

Measurement of radiation damage of water-based liquid scintillator and liquid scintillator [PDF]
Liquid scintillating phantoms have been proposed as a means to perform real-time 3D dosimetry for proton therapy treatment plan verification. We have studied what effect radiation damage to the scintillator will have upon this application. We have performed measurements of the degradation of the light yield and optical attenuation length of liquid ...
