Abstract
Radionuclide decay and measurement with appropriate counting instruments is one of the few physical processes for which exact mathematical/probabilistic models are available. This paper discusses statistical procedures associated with display and analysis of radionuclide counting data that derive from these exact models. For low count situations the attractiveness of fixed-count-random-time procedures is discussed.
