THE scintillation spectrometer 1 using a sodium iodide crystal (thallium-activated) identifies the incident gamma-ray energy with the response to the photo-electric, Compton and (when energetically ...

IT has been shown 1,2 that energy measurements with scintillation counters can be made with considerable accuracy with the aid of the ‘photo-electron lines’ in the pulse–height distribution. But the ...

If you want to work with radioactive material, a cheap Geiger counter isn’t really what you want. According to [Project 326], you need a gamma ray spectrometer. The video below reviews the Radiacode ...

We don’t know why [stoppi71] needs to do gamma spectroscopy. We only know that he has made one, including a high-voltage power supply, a photomultiplier tube, and–what else–an Arduino. You also need a ...

A unique Kickstarter campaign has launched this week to provide a USB adapter for a DIY gamma ray spectroscopy. The Photomultiplier Tube USB adapter has been created by Italian developer Papadopol ...

A new IAEA coordinated research project (CRP D12015) will apply gamma-ray spectrometry and digital technologies such as drones, satellite imagery and advanced analytics for precise soil assessment to ...
