it penetrates through the paper into a detector that measures how much got through which determines how thick it is.

beta radiation used in this paper thickness equipment because alpha and gamma are very strong radiation which can not be used for paper thickness equipment such as paper are used by every one and it could cause radiation if other nuclear radiation like alpha and gamma are used.
Beta radiation can be used in medicine and in other areas of science to learn more about the structures and processes in living organisms, and also in nuclear medicine to treat some medical conditions.
burns it a lot
Paper Ream: Quantity of paper...500 sheets. Calipers used to measure thickness of sheet of paper.
The hairs on a coconut husk, called coir, can be used to make paper. Because of the thickness of coir, paper which uses it as a material can be tough, with a construction paper-like texture.

An instrument called micrometer is used to measure paper or card thickness.

Because its attenuation is proportional to thickness being penetrated
If you are referring to beta thickness gauging, an isotope emitting beta radiation is used. Sources commonly used include Promethium-147, Strontium-90 and Krypton-85. The source is usually enclosed in a protective cover, but I would keep my distance from it if I were you.
Applications of promethium: - beta radiation source in instruments used to measure thickness of coatings by retrodiffusion of beta radiations - luminous paints - atomic batteries
Typewriter paper typically has a thickness ranging from 0.07mm to 0.1mm, depending on the brand and quality of the paper.
