  3. Civil defense Geiger counters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Civil_defense_Geiger_counters

    The CD V-700 is a Geiger counter employing a probe equipped with a Geiger–Müller tube manufactured by several companies under contract to US federal civil defense agencies in the 1950s and 1960s. This unit is quite sensitive and can be used to measure low levels of gamma radiation and detect beta radiation. In cases of high-radiation fields ...

  4. Geiger counter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geiger_counter

    "Geiger counter" is often used generically to refer to any form of dosimeter (or, radiation-measuring device), but scientifically, a Geiger counter is only one specific type of dosimeter. It detects ionizing radiation such as alpha particles , beta particles , and gamma rays using the ionization effect produced in a Geiger–Müller tube ...

  5. Gaseous ionization detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gaseous_ionization_detector

    Geiger–Müller tubes are the primary components of Geiger counters. They operate at an even higher voltage, selected such that each ion pair creates an avalanche, but by the emission of UV photons, multiple avalanches are created which spread along the anode wire, and the adjacent gas volume ionizes from as little as a single ion pair event.

  6. Dosimeter - Wikipedia

    These use a conventional Geiger-Muller tube, typically a ZP1301 or similar energy-compensated tube, requiring between 600 and 700V and pulse detection components. The display on most is a bubble or miniature LCD type with 4 digits and a discrete counter integrated chip such as 74C925/6.

  7. Counts per minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counts_per_minute

    Geiger-Müller counter with dual counts/dose rate display measuring a "point source". The dose per count is known for this specific instrument by calibration. The count rates of cps and cpm are generally accepted and convenient practical rate measurements. They are not SI units, but are de facto radiological units of measure in widespread use.

    English: This is a complete Geiger counter, on the left side you see the keyboard, in the middle the circuit board and on the right the build-in Geiger-Muller tube 70 019 (on top) and the battery compartment for 2 AA batteries

  9. Coincidence method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coincidence_method

    The Bothe–Geiger experiment was the first significant coincidence experiment to test the transfer of energy between the incoming photon and the electron in this process. The experiment utilized two Geiger counters: one to detect the initial recoiling election and one to simultaneously detect a secondary electron recoil caused by the photonic ...
