  2. Radiation monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiation_monitoring

    Examples are installed "area" radiation monitors, Gamma interlock monitors, personnel exit monitors, and airborne particulate monitors. The area radiation monitor will measure the ambient radiation, usually X-ray, Gamma or neutrons; these are radiations which can have significant radiation levels over a range in excess of tens of metres from ...

  3. Survey meter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Survey_meter

    In Radiation Protection, an instrument which reads a rate of detected events is normally known as a ratemeter, which was first developed by N.S.Gingrich et al. in 1936. [2] This provided a real-time dynamic indication of the radiation rate, and the principle has found widespread use in Health Physics and as radiation Survey meter.

  4. Personal RF safety monitor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Personal_RF_safety_monitor

    Other monitors, like extremely low frequency monitors which measure exposure to radiation from electric power lines, also exist. The major difference between a "Monitor" and a "Dosimeter" is that a Dosimeter can measure the absorbed dose of ionizing radiation, which does not exist for RF Monitors. Monitors are also separated by "RF Monitors ...

  6. Dosimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dosimeter

    Manufacturing processes that treat products with ionizing radiation, such as food irradiation, use dosimeters to calibrate doses deposited in the matter being irradiated. These usually must have a greater dose range than personal dosimeters, and doses are normally measured in the unit of absorbed dose: the gray (Gy). The dosimeter is located on ...

  7. Civil defense Geiger counters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_defense_Geiger_counters

    A much more modern and sophisticated device than earlier CD meters and equipped with a probe containing two Geiger-Mueller tubes of differing sensitivities, the CD V-718 can cover a much wider range of radiation levels than the earlier Geiger counters and ion-chamber survey meters combined (from .001mR/h to 10,000 R/h).

  8. Counts per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counts_per_minute

    Counts is the number of events detected, but dose rate relates to the amount of ionising energy deposited in the sensor of the radiation detector. The conversion calculation is dependent on the radiation energy levels, the type of radiation being detected and the radiometric characteristic of the detector. [1]

  9. Geiger counter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geiger_counter

    α-particles have the shortest range, and to detect these the window should ideally be within 10 mm of the radiation source due to α-particle attenuation. [2] However, the Geiger–Müller tube produces a pulse output which is the same magnitude for all detected radiation, so a Geiger counter with an end window tube cannot distinguish between ...
