Abstract
A new thin‐wall Geiger counter of large area sensitive to soft beta‐radiation has been developed. The sensitive area can be as large as desired and the wall thin enough for C14 (2 mg/cm2). The cylindrical geometry renders the counter especially suitable for accurate assays of large solid samples of low specific activity and low energy.Keywords
