title: New analytical solution to calculate linear absorption coefficients of beta radiations.
abstract: The paper deals with an alternative model of beta radiation transmissions through attenuation layers and brings another analytical description of this phenomenon. The model is validated with a reliable data set and brings a possibility to calculate characteristic material parameters with low uncertainties. Using no correction factors, these calculations can be considered fundamental and inspiring for further research in the field.
