Title: An intermediate-image spectrometer for precision analysis of beta spectra
Abstract: Eventual distortion of beta spectra due to instrumental components of a spectrometer is discussed. Simple relations for backscattering correction and maximum permissible discriminator bias-setting for any primary energy are suggested. A limit of 0.5% for any changes in the transmission of the Intermediate-image spectrometer due to baffle-scattering is prescribed. An exact but easy method of resolution correction due to Hinman26) without involving any assumptions regarding line-shapes and the true beta spectra is also discussed.
