Gaseous ionization detectors — In particle physics, gaseous ionization detectors are detectors designed to seek the presence of particles (a particle detector). If a particle has enough energy to ionize a gas, the resulting electrons emitted can cause a current flow which can… … Wikipedia
Ionization chamber — An ionization chamber is a device used for two major purposes: detecting particles in air (as in a smoke detector), and for detection or measurement of ionizing radiation. An ionization chamber is an instrument constructed to measure the number… … Wikipedia
Proportional counter — A proportional counter is a measurement device to count particles of ionizing radiation and measure their energy.A proportional counter is a type of Gaseous ionization detector it works on the same principle as the Geiger Müller counter, but uses … Wikipedia
Geiger counter — Infobox Laboratory equipment name = Geiger counter caption = A modern geiger counter acronym = other names = Geiger Müller counter uses = Particle detector inventor = Hans Geiger manufacturer = model = related = Geiger Müller tubeA Geiger counter … Wikipedia
Particle detector — In experimental and applied particle physics and nuclear engineering, a particle detector, also known as a radiation detector, is a device used to detect, track, and/or identify high energy particles, such as those produced by nuclear decay,… … Wikipedia
Neutron detection — is the effective detection of neutrons entering a well positioned detector. There are two key aspects to effective neutron detection: hardware and software. Detection hardware refers to the kind of neutron detector used (the most common today is… … Wikipedia
Gas Electron Multiplier — The Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) is a type of gaseous ionization detector used in nuclear and particle physics and radiation detection. All gaseous ionization detectors are able to collect the electrons released by ionizing radiation, guiding… … Wikipedia
Survey meter — Survey meters are portable radiation detection and measurement instruments used to check personnel, equipment, and facilities for radioactive contamination, or check external or ambient ionizing radiation fields (to evaluate the direct exposure… … Wikipedia
Geiger-Müller tube — A Geiger Müller tube (or GM tube) is the sensing element of a Geiger counter instrument that can detect a single particle of ionizing radiation, and typically produce an audible click for each. It was named for Hans Geiger who invented the device … Wikipedia
Dead time — For other uses, see Dead Time (disambiguation). For detection systems that record discrete events, such as particle and nuclear detectors, the dead time is the time after each event during which the system is not able to record another event.[1]… … Wikipedia
