When discussing nuclear radiation, it is important to be able to measure the amount of radiation present. This is where scintillation counters come in. Scintillation counters are devices that measure ...

Researchers using liquid scintillation counting to measure radiation from beta-emitting nuclides are favouring instruments from LabLogic Systems in circumstances where versatility or a high degree of ...

IIIF provides researchers rich metadata and media viewing options for comparison of works across cultural heritage collections. Visit the IIIF page to learn more.

THE determination of all but the simplest radioactive decay schemes necessitates a means of analysis of the γ-rays emitted, so that coincidences may be measured between the various γ-rays, and also ...

Can’t find a recently updated survey of radioactivity in your neighborhood? Try [Hunter Long]’s DIY scintillation counter warwalking rig. (Video also embedded below.) What looks like a paint can with ...

Geiger counters are a popular hacker project, and may yet prove useful if and when the nuclear apocalypse comes to pass. They’re not the only technology out there for detecting radiation however.

FAST neutrons can be detected by scintillation counters, using organic phosphors such as anthracene, by the proton recoils which they cause 1–3. It is usually necessary, however, to detect the ...

The new reader has automatic sample loading of various vial sizes. It includes a Triple to Double Coincidence Ratio measurement feature that enables straightforward determination of sample efficiency ...

Scintillation Counters When certain substances are hit by a ray or particle, they emit light. Joined to a device which amplifies the flash, they make an instrument of great versatility and large ...
