Self-absorption correction for isotopes emitting weak beta rays.
The shape of the self-absorption correction curve of beta-emitters is not universal but depends on the geometrical arrangement of the sample and counting device. This may explain why the correction factor defined by Hendler (1) is not always linearly related to the thickness of the sample.
