Determination of HTO content in polar ice/snow samples by low background liquid scintillation technique

Tritium (T) is a radio isotope of hydrogen element, which is produced, on the earth, by atomic reactions in artificial atomic reactors as well as in the upper atmosphere. T occurs in natural water mainly as HTO and the concentration in precipitation shows local and seasonal fluctuations depending up...
