Abstract
⺠Suppression of β-particle events are demonstrated using a capillary tube as a detection cell. ⺠Liquid scintillation counting of 241Am and 152Eu was performed with PFA capillary tubes. ⺠The β spectrum is located at the lower-energy region with decreasing i.d. of the tubes. ⺠Energy resolution and detection efficiency of α particles were kept high. ⺠This method would be used as a simple α/β discrimination technique for α spectrometry.
