Table 4.
LS counting results for the first trial as obtained in the two counters. The average quench-indicating parameter H# (measured in counter “B”) maps with the composition variations shown in Table 5. Values for the massic counting rate RU/m are grand mean averages for the three sources for each series and across the n = 4 (for “B”) or n = 3 (for “H”) replicate measurements for each source. The relative measurement precision estimator S is the combination in quadrature of the typical within-source standard deviation of the mean for the three sources and the between-source standard deviation of the three mean values.
| Series | Average H# | “B” counter | “H” counter | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| RU/m (s−1 g−1) | S (%) | RU/m (s−1 g−1) | S (%) | ||
| A | 104.2 | 905.5 | 0.17 | 906.9 | 0.56 |
| B | 120.0 | 904.5 | 0.10 | 905.0 | 0.14 |
| C | 122.9 | 903.9 | 0.11 | 905.0 | 0.62 |
