Geiger-Mueller tube

Detectors include (1) Geiger-Mueller tube, (2) ionization chambers, (3) scintillation counters, (4) proportional counter, (5) electron-multiplier tubes, and (G) nondispersive detectors using cooled lithium-drifted Si detectors, See Fig. 3... [Pg.1759]

Radioisotope detection of P, 14C, and Tc was reported by Kaniansky et al. (7,8) for isotachophoresis. In their work, isotachophoretic separations were performed using fluorinated ethylene-propylene copolymer capillary tubing (300 pm internal diameter) and either a Geiger-Mueller tube or a plastic scintillator/photomultiplier tube combination to detect emitted fi particles. One of their reported detection schemes involved passing the radiolabeled sample components directly through a plastic scintillator. Detector efficiency for 14C-labeled molecules was reported to be 13-15%, and a minimum detection limit of 0.44 nCi was reported for a 212 nL cell volume. [Pg.61]

A Geiger-Mueller tube is a gas-filled chamber used to measure alpha, beta, and gamma radiation. Radiation entering the mbe ionizes the gas and creates small currents that the instmment measures. [Pg.314]

Electronic Dosimeters — Electronic dosimeters have been available since the early 1980s. These devices use energy-compensated Geiger-Mueller tubes or solid-state detectors with supporting electronics in a package typically the size of a deck of playing cards. Features vary with respect to size, ruggedness, user control, display of accumulated dose and/or dose rate, alarm set point, battery life, computer interface, etc. f I i... [Pg.40]

A Geiger-Mueller end-window counter (see Fig. 28.3) is used for counting the P beta particles. There are five shelf positions at varying distances from the tube. The shelf positions are calibrated... [Pg.624]

Geiger counter A radiation-detection and -measuring instrument. Consists of a gas-filled tube that discharges electrically when ionizing radiation passes through it. It was named for Hans Geiger and W. Mueller, who invented it in the 1920s. [Pg.116]
