A twin rod-conduction calorimeter for routine assay of small radioactive sources is described. The equilibration time is about forty minutes and the detection limit about 1 x 10/sup -4/ watt. A thermistor circuit and nonlinear potentiometer are used for the differential temperature measurement. Use of a plutonium sample for calibration is described. (auth
