THE standardization of pure β-emitting nuclides becomes increasingly difficult as the energy of the radiation decreases, because of absorption and scattering effects which occur at the low-energy end of the β-spectrum. It may be possible to circumvent these effects by a technique employed by Waggoner, Moon and Roberts in connexion with a magnetic β-ray spectrometer1. This method consists of extrapolating to zero the straight Kurie plot which should be obtained for a single allowed β-ray transition. It is the purpose of this communication to show the relation between the slope of the Kurie plot and the absolute disintegration-rate of a radioactive source,and to describe the proposed method of application to 4πcounting.
