Book excerpt: A small gamma probe operable between 100 mr/hr and 103 r/hr was built to measure gamma ray intensities near a large nonuniform source or in a large nonuniform field. The sensitive element, a thallium-activated sodium iodide crystal, is observed by a phototube. Four applications of the unit are described.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Design, construction, and testing of an integrating gamma-ray dosimeter for high dose rates are discussed. The sensor is a silicon surface-barrier detector operating as a current device. The detector output current is integrated on a capacitor. When the voltage on the capacitor rises to a predetermined level corresponding to 10 rad-equivalent-air of gamma-ray dose, the capacitor is discharged and the instrument produces an output pulse to signal the event. The number of output pulses indicates integrated dose, and the pulse repetition rate indicates dose rate. The detector proper is cooled with a thermoelectric cooler to minimize and stabilize leakage current. The instrument is designed for operation in the dose-rate range of 10 to 100,000 rad-equivalent-air per second. The detector is constructed to make it function as a Bragg-Gray device over the gamma-ray energy range of 80 kev to 12 Mev. The detector is reasonably isotropic; cumulative errors due to all causes are less than plus or minus 30%. The electronics are insensitive to gamma-radiation transients for dose rates as high as 1,000,000 rad per second. Results of tests with radioactive sources, a fast-burst reactor, and bremsstrahlung pulses are given. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report covers the investigation and development of a new low-cost gamma radiation survey meter with a range of 1 to 100 Roentgens per hour. A survey of existing gamma radiation detection transducers is presented with special emphasis on comparing newer semiconductor types with the Edison radiation detection type. Theory of operation and characteristics of the Edison radiation detector are given as well as results of preliminary gamma irradiation tests. Prototype design and testing is described and test results for the final prototype are given. A preliminary specification covering the new survey meter is presented to cover the design and testing requirements of a production instrument. Finally, recommendations are made which may result in improvement of the detection tube and reduce the cost of the meter still further. (Author).

Download or read book Calculations and Measurements of the Energy dependent Response of a Shielded Gamma ray Detector written by and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 77 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Instruments designed to record high-intensity gamma-ray flashes must have fast time response, wide dynamic range, and good rejection of photon backgrounds at lower energies. In principle, plastic scintillators can easily provide the necessary time response and dynamic range; like other photon detectors, however, they must be carefully shielded to reduce their low-energy sensitivity. This shielding is often complicated by the need to use different optical sensors to cover the full dynamic range, which each sensor requiring a separate opening through the shielding. In this detector, a high-sensitivity photomultiplier tube handles low-intensity signals, and a silicon photodiode covers high intensities. These electronic components, particularly the diode, may also respond directly to incident radiation, so localized shielding must be provided. To reduce the detector's total mass, the scintillator and photodiode are enclosed in a relatively thick, tight-fitting inner shield, which is surrounded by a thin outer shield to reduce the leakage through any gaps. Although efficient, this arrangement demands careful design and testing. This report describes such an analysis, which uses Monte Carlo simulations to develop a comprehensive model of the detector at photon energies from threshold to above 10 MeV. Included are discussions of the fundamental responses of the unshielded silicon diode and plastic scintillator, explanations of the effectiveness of different shielding materials, studies of calibration sources, and comparisons with laboratory tests.
