Tritium Measurement without Background Counting for Water Sample Treated with Electrolysis Enrichment

The difference of count rate between an enriched tritium sample and the non-enriched sample is the product of the net count rate and (enrichment factor-1) . The relationship gives net count rate without background deduction. This method was applied to tritium water treated by electrolysis enrichment...

Summary:The difference of count rate between an enriched tritium sample and the non-enriched sample is the product of the net count rate and (enrichment factor-1) . The relationship gives net count rate without background deduction. This method was applied to tritium water treated by electrolysis enrichment and the result was verified. The reliability and error of the measurement were comparable with the conventional measurement. This measurement was found to be useful for tritium enrichment analysis.
