| Definition | A laboratory instrument designed to count beta particles emitted by a sample using the Geiger-Muller principle. A steady gas stream of argon (99%) and isobutene or propane (1%) becomes ionised due to beta particle emission from the sample, and the ionised gas particles are collected within a high voltage field, detected as an electric current pulse and recorded as a counting event. A guard counter allows the removal of the cosmic background radiation signal. The instrument is typically placed inside a lead shielding to reduce the ambient background radiation. | ||
