[Manish] packed lots of functionality into this radiation sensor module. The device is completely solar powered and weatherproof, so it can be mounted anywhere. It uses a Geiger Muller tube to ...

These sensors are essential for experiments conducted in environments with high radiation levels, such as those found in particle accelerators. Recent research has focused on understanding how ...

Potato plants, for example, can survive 10 times the amount of radiation that would kill a human. We chose potato as our sensor organism because potato plants can tolerate high levels of radiation ...

Each voltage pulse corresponds to one ionising radiation entering the GM tube. The voltage pulse is amplified and counted. The greater the level of radiation, the more ionisation in the tube so ...

This sensor is not at its most sensitive at the energy levels emitted by the iodine isotope used in the treatment, but the relatively high intensity of the radiation meant that enough would ...
