A prototype of a portable liquid scintillation counting system based on the Triple-to-Double Coincidence Ratio (TDCR) technique was developed at ENEA-INMRI in the framework of the European Metrofission project. The new device equipped with the CAEN digitizers was tested for the activity measurements of pure ?-emitters (99Tc and 63Ni). The list-mode data recorded by the digitizers were analyzed by software implemented in the CERN ROOT environment, which allows the application of pulse shape discrimination using the new device. ᄅ 2014 Elsevier Ltd.

Abstract
A prototype of a portable liquid scintillation counting system based on the Triple-to-Double Coincidence Ratio (TDCR) technique was developed at ENEA-INMRI in the framework of the European Metrofission project. The new device equipped with the CAEN digitizers was tested for the activity measurements of pure ?-emitters (99Tc and 63Ni). The list-mode data recorded by the digitizers were analyzed by software implemented in the CERN ROOT environment, which allows the application of pulse shape discrimination using the new device. ᄅ 2014 Elsevier Ltd.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
