I've moved this from the scintillometer entry to scintillation counter here which is the much more frequently used term and because a scintillometer is also a totally unrelated scientific instrument used to measure air turbulence and heat transfer etc.
Somethings hinky about the line "Scintillation counters are the most sensitive-known radiation detectors." In a way they are particle dedectors however large scale particle dedectors are much more accurate and complex. Someone who is savvy in this field fix this please.--Slicky 20:27, May 29, 2005 (UTC)
Hinky indeed. Take a look at my fix. I've worked with these guys for 30 years, and the author of the standard reference text cited is a good friend whom I've helped give courses on the subject, so I think I'm qualified to write this... Bill-on-the-Hill 04:20, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
On looking more at this, it is not obvious that there is any need for this page given the more complete and accurate one already available for scintillator. What to do to consolidate them? Bill-on-the-Hill 04:28, 17 August 2005 (UTC)
- scintillator is focused on the sciintillation processes and materials, I don't think they should be merged. Sergio Ballestrero 19:43, 17 April 2006 (UTC)
