When you think of a radiation detector, you’re probably thinking ... for lightweight and low power applications, and gives us the inspiration to put a high altitude balloon project together.

A multi-institutional team of physicists and engineers has developed a laser-based radiation detection system that operates from as far away as 10 meters and perhaps farther. Their research is ...

RIT’s Center for Detectors achieved first light in a project to develop technology for finding alien life in the universe on ...

Straight out of the Cold War, this vintage radiation detector was built to survive nuclear ... and see how it compares to modern tech. Will it save us, or is it just a relic of the past?

The work is “significant progress towards the development of new, potentially more effective standoff radiation detection mechanisms,” research scholar Cameron Tracy of the Berkeley Risk and ...

Both ionizing and non-ionizing radiation can be harmful to both organisms and the natural environment. Radiation testers either measure the levels of Ionizing or non-ionizing radiation from Nuclear ...

[Robert] gives us a good example, with a self-contained radiation detector head that uses a trio of BPW34s to do the job. At its heart is a transimpedance amplifier, a not-often-seen op-amp ...

Hines demonstrates equipment at the open house for the Safeguards Laboratory user facility, Engineering Technology Facility ...

The purpose of the detector is to detect and quantify the amount of radiation received. In older gamma systems, an ion chamber was typically used in density applications. Modern detectors use a ...
