(c) The [
38
Cl]-surface activity deposited at the surface is, to a great extent, strongly bound.
It is located also within the 'bulk solid'; this location is not detected by the counters
due to self-absorption of the b
emitter, [
36
Cl] but its existence is inferred by the
surface count behaviour following removal of radioactive vapour and weakly bound
[
36
Cl] species.
Possible ways of formulating the adsorbed states of H
36
Cl are discussed below (in
Section 4.4.4).
