Development of a beta-induced fluorescence detector and its application to environmental problems Sylvia Massey 2134/38018 https://repository.lboro.ac.uk/articles/thesis/Development_of_a_beta-induced_fluorescence_detector_and_its_application_to_environmental_problems/9399146 A fluorescence detector in which beta particles from 147Pm are used as the exciting source has been developed and attached to a commercial high performance liquid chromatograph. The design and evaluation of a self-contained prototype beta-induced fluorescence (BIF) detector is described together with results obtained for normal and reversed-phase chromatography.
