Abstract
Abstract: The β-particles emitted from 1 mc of Kr85 sealed in a small nickel capsule were used to excite the characteristic K-X-rays of various elements. It was found that the best arrangement of source and target was with the source sandwiched between two thin foils of the target element. The use of these X-rays as energy references for the calibration of proportional and scintillation counters in the energy region 0 to 100 keV is illustrated. Since the energies of K-X-rays are known to about one part in 104 the accuracy of calibration depends only on the resolution of the instrument under test.
