Quantitative criteria for judging the performance of a nuclear counting channel are discussed. Several procedures for evaluating the performance of the counting channels were combined with statistical tests of significance into one method or test. Statistical purity checks, comparison of actual and theoretical standard deviations, the Fisher variance test, and a chi-square test are described. (M.C.G.
