- W99496710 abstract "Cerenkov light is electromagnetic radiation, normally in the near ultraviolet and visible parts of the spectrum, which is emitted when charged particles of sufficient energy pass through a dielectric medium. It was first observed as a bluish-white luminescence by Mme Curie in 1910 and studied experimentally during 1926-29 by the French radiochemist Mallett.' Further detailed experimental work was performed by the Russian Cerenkov,2 whose results were explained theoretically by Frank and Tamm.3 Practical use of the effect awaited the invention of the photomultiplier in the late 1940's. The first uses were in nuclear physics, and the application to radioassay came surprisingly late. In 1950 Belcher4 observed a luminescence of low order from aqueous solutions of radioactive isotopes which he later' showed to be primarily Cerenkov emission. Little use appears to have been made of his work i.mtil the mid-1960's when, following a suggestion by Rapkin7 and stimulated by the development of sensitive automatic liquid scintillation counting equipment and the subsequent demand for improvements in sample preparation, there were some sporadic reports of applications.6'2 The method has since come into routine use for the assay of high-energy p-emitters and has been the subject of a number of fairly recent reviews.' In the present paper the more important features of the technique are summarised with emphasis on possible sources of error. More extended attention is given to those aspects which have received most attention during the past 3 years, namely, quench corrections and the use of wavelengthshifters, and finally the increasing number of applications are reviewed." @default.
