Abstract
A plastic scintillation detector survey system is being developed to measure surface and depth dose rates from occupational exposure to mixed beta-gamma radiation fields. The maximum energy of the beta emitters present also will be determined using a new "electronic" version of the absorption method originally developed by HARLEY and HALLDEN for sample purity analysis.
