Liquid scintillation detectors employed for these searches require a large mass (~100 tons) of scintillator with extremely low radioactivity (<10 nBq/ton). Liquid scintillation will detect all ...

Recently, researchers at the observatory began filling a scaled-down version of the detector with liquid scintillator on March 7. This small model will be used to evaluate the purity of the ...

Now, 3D printing has even found its way into particle physics as an international collaboration led by a group from CERN is developing a new plastic scintillator production technique that involves ...

The scintillator and sensor are wrapped in black tape to block out ambient light. The heart of the device is a scintillation crystal such as thallium-doped sodium iodide which converts incoming ...

And for a big detector, you need liquid." Eos is a 10-meter-tall, 5-meter-wide cylinder filled with water and an organic ...

These are made by several manufacturers and cost from $15,000 to $100,000 and up. These systems use a plastic scintillator as their detector. The larger the area of the detectors, the greater the ...

For low energy photon emitting isotopes (<60keV), it is recommended that a low energy gamma scintillator, such as a NaI detector, be used. 125Iodine is an example of an isotope which emits photons of ...

In older gamma systems, an ion chamber was typically used in density applications. Modern detectors use a scintillator tube sensor. The scintillator tube absorbs the gamma photon and converts it into ...
