Analytical calculations of counting losses in internal gas proportional counting.
In internal gas proportional counting, the evaluation of counting losses is important in order to obtain high accuracy measurement results. In this paper, counting losses due to the wall effect and not counted beta particles with very low energy are evaluated by analytical calculations. The calculated and experimental results are compared and a very good agreement is found.
