Portable Liquid Scintillation Counter

Abstract

The portable liquid scintillation counter (PLSC) will be used by Navy personnel in situations where potable water may be contaminated with radioactive material. The nuclear reactor accident at Fukushima and the subsequent Navy involvement revealed the need for this type of instrument. Navy personnel will be able to verify the safety of potable water and possibly test personnel for internal contamination.
