Q: Take 3 imaginary isotopes. #1 has a peak at 100 keV only, # 2 has a peak at 662 keV only and #3 has a single peak at 3 MeV. Each sample has the same number...
Hello Folks! This is an explanation of how nuclear decay happens, and where the alpha, beta and gammas we all love to measure come from. For all intents and...
Radiation Detection Probes and Their Dial Scales> A Tutorial by Geo Pay attention to the Gamma Sensitivity numbers in the specification sheets and charts. This...
Calibrating a Survey Meter> A Tutorial by Geo STEP 1: Check the instrument and probe for contamination. a frisker (pancake probe) should be used so that all...
Question on MicroRems VS MilliRems & CDV-700 StAnDaRdS don't ya love them? More below but short answer is milli Roentgens per Hour. This applies only to...
In my opinion, "Radiation from granite" would be best measured in terms of GAMMA RAYs, and RADON contribution ( if any). Gamma Ray quantification: Even with a...
Will be adding some basic gear to the full time mobile rad lab, and extending the optional equipment available for extended runs and special field trips. ...
Model PTM-1812 Femto Tech Handheld Tritium in Air monitor. Picked this up for a good price, had dead batteries and a bad IC inside. The factory fixed it all up...

A while back I did a report on a radioactive road that I had found in Las Vegas. The road material itself was radioactive but only in specific areas. ...
Folks, I've got my 8075 Spectrometer running finally ! It took a bit of work getting all of my NIM modules working, but it was worth the trouble. Now I need to...
FYI, any hard vacuum tube when mated to some high voltage will produce some X-Rays. The old style Tv set rectifiers got so bad at this that measures eventually...
Other excellent tubes for producing x-rays are the shunt stabliser triodes from the line output stages of old color TV`s Excellent types are PD500, 6EN4, and...
Posted under Spectrum Analyzer in the files section. Its a video I made using a spectrum analyzer and cdv counter together. Analyzer software is in the folder...
A large slab of DU metal, "DU slab" 4" X 4 1/8" is used as a semi-infinite or PLANE source of beta radiation to test and calibrate probes. A known contact dose...
neutrons from DU, Unat some time ago I did a demo of Spontaneous Fission in depleted uranium: http://www.qsl.net/k0ff/Fission%20in%20the%20Home%20Rad%20Lab/ ...
