A simplified photographic coincidence method /

In the analysis of nuclear decay schemes, where half-lives in the order of minutes or less are involved and where multi-channel pulse height analyzers are not available, some type of photographic technique is generally used to obtain coincidence information. Of the several photographic methods described in the literature, one method requires the use of a motion picture camera while other require specially modified oscilliscopes. All require additional circuitry of varying complexity. The method described here requires a minimum of additional circuitry, is simple to construct and to operate, and is easily adaptable to Gray Wedge analysis.Work performed at the University of Michigan."Work performed under Contract No. AT(11-1)-70"--P.
