摘要：
This paper presents the alpha/beta complete deconvolution tool (ABCD-Tool), a C++ application for the analysis of spectra from liquid scintillation counting (LSC) measurements. In addition to the basic algorithms for standard gross alpha/beta analysis and the determination of the counting efficiency, the software implements a recent unfolding technique based on Fourier transforms, which gives precise and reliable results even in the case of complex, strongly overlapping spectra. The application is designed to be used with alpha/beta spectra generated from Perkin Elmer Wallac Quantulus 1220. However, future upgrades are scheduled in order to extend the compatibility to spectra from other LSC instruments in commerce.
