2. Scintillation counter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scintillation_counter

   Detectors are designed to have one or two scintillation materials, depending on the application. "Single phosphor" detectors are used for either alpha or beta, and "Dual phosphor" detectors are used to detect both. [8] A scintillator such as zinc sulphide is used for alpha particle detection, whilst plastic scintillators are used for beta ...

3. Agentase Chemical Agent Detection Kit - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agentase_Chemical_Agent...

   The Agentase Chemical Agent Detection (CAD) Kit, formerly known as the Fido C1 CAD Kit, is an enzyme-based chemical detection kit that contains six different sensors that are designed to detect specific chemical warfare agents (CWAs) and other toxic chemical contaminants at trace levels. The kit is provided in a small pouch and can detect the ...

4. Counter-IED equipment - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-IED_equipment

   A variety of technologies are used to detect landmines, improvised explosive devices (IED) and unexploded ordnance (UXO), including acoustic sensors, animals and biologically-based detection systems (bees, dogs, pigs, rats), chemical sensors, electromagnetic sensors and hyperspectral sensor analysis, generalized radar techniques, ground ...

5. Passive infrared sensor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_infrared_sensor

   The plastic window reduces the chance of foreign objects (dust, insects, rain, etc.) from obscuring the sensor's field of view, damaging the mechanism, and/or causing false alarms. The window may be used as a filter, to limit the wavelengths to 8-14 micrometres, which is closest to the infrared radiation emitted by humans.

6. Cryogenic particle detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cryogenic_particle_detector

   Cryogenic particle detectors operate at very low temperature, typically only a few degrees above absolute zero. These sensors interact with an energetic elementary particle (such as a photon ) and deliver a signal that can be related to the type of particle and the nature of the interaction.

7. Kinetic inductance detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_inductance_detector

   Chip containing aluminium kinetic inductance detectors with tin absorbers. Image credit: Argonne National Lab. The kinetic inductance detector (KID) — also known as a microwave kinetic inductance detector (MKID) — is a type of superconducting photon detector capable of counting single photons whilst simultaneously measuring their energy and arrival time to high precision.

9. Particle detector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_detector

   In experimental and applied particle physics, nuclear physics, and nuclear engineering, a particle detector, also known as a radiation detector, is a device used to detect, track, and/or identify ionizing particles, such as those produced by nuclear decay, cosmic radiation, or reactions in a particle accelerator. Detectors can measure the ...
