Three parallel Geiger-Muller Tubes were used in this project in order to produce a Cosmic Ray Muon Detector that is easy to build, low cost, and contains usable output to graph, visualize, or sonify.

Geiger counters are a popular hacker project, and may yet prove useful if and when the nuclear apocalypse comes to pass. They’re not the only technology out there for detecting radiation however.

A Tokyo Metropolitan University researcher has proposed using existing safety monitoring setups at synchrotron facilities to detect dark photons, theoretical particles linked to dark matter. The ...

Over the years we’ve featured quite a few radiatioactivity detectors, which usually include a Geiger-Muller tube, or perhaps a large-area photodiode. But in the event of radiation exposure from a ...

A Tokyo Metropolitan University physicist has proposed using routine synchrotron safety equipment to search for dark photons, particles that may explain dark matter. By combining undulator-generated X ...

The Geiger-Muller (GM) tube allows a user to measure different types of radiation, including alpha, beta, x, and gamma particles. A GM tube consists of one anode and one cathode enclosed in a ...

The project is concerned on building a detector for ionizing radiation known as Geiger counter with the interfacing on a microcontroller that is capable of connecting to a PC through a USB. There are ...
