Automated reader for solid-state fission track recorders

Vehar, David W.

An automatic optical track identification/counting system has been developed for counting the total number of fission tracks on a fused quartz solid state track recorder. The system is capable of analyzing up to twenty recorders a day with an operator input of less than two hours. The uncertainty introduced by the counting system is about one percent. 6 refs., 2 figs.
