As one who has operated 9 reactor plants, I thoroughly understand :P A CFX is not a reactor because it does not produce a self sustaining reaction and cannot...

Dear David, Wow, that's great! I'll contact you off list for the details. That's a good video; I wish I had seen it before. However, before I broke the socket,...
It's best to set it on a socket (like for a ratchet...) or a small piece of pipe the same diameter so you support the brass all around. I did that, but it...
I have had the best results removing the socket from the probe handel by: 1) clamping the brass socket section in a vice, then cutting the cable flush with the...
My method I used for my last two probes is a modified version of this, sans the heat. Remove the tube (obviously). Cut the cable off flush and screw the upper...
I know this is slightly out of line for the "700" group, but in the CDV catagory; I have a fair number of every model "CDV" meters in my humble collection...
Hi Juno, Thanks for the part no. I checked Ludlum's site and this 18" - 48" coiled cable is $95. All their coiled cables are from $95 to $150. These are...
It's unlikely you'll find out anything more. There isn't any easily available documentation, although perhaps somewhere at NARA or DTIC some box you could sift...
I am planning on making an autoradiograph of a piece of polished limestone uranium ore grading 0.4% to 1%. My plans are to use 120 format 3200 speed b+w film....
kwcclark did some radiography using 600 polaroid film: http://tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/GCEpage3/files/Polaroidiographs/ If your ore is as hot as the radium...
... Dr Labs, Consider using an x-ray to visible converter sheet. They're cheap, and since they have heavy elements they catch the x-rays and emit in the silver...
Use a sheet of lead to do an exposure test. Cover all but 10% of the sample (between sample and film) and expose for 1 hour. Move the sheet 10% and expose...
Thanks Mike L. and Revtkatt for your helpful suggestions. My professor had me do some more research and I found that alpha detecting film has been used ...
Dang., I don't know what you are trying to do, but if it is to just get an image of your sample, I wouldn't spend that much just to work with alphas. There...
