Abstract:

This work considers the manifestation of spontaneous breakdowns of Geiger-Mueller counters. This is an experimental type of work. The reasons leading to the spontaneous breakdowns of Geiger-Mueller counters have been analysed under controlled laboratory conditions. The experiments were carried out under the ?constant voltage?. The tested Geiger-Mueller chambers were commercial chambers of the radial electric field and homogenous electric field. The experimental-statistical methods were used in order to choose the chambers with identical features (with 0.1 % of statistical reliability).The results of experiments showed that the spontaneous breakdown of the Geiger-Mueller counter happens even in the conditions of shielding. They also showed that those breakdowns have cumulative features. The reason for that is a positive feedback between the spontaneous breakdowns. The explanation is confirmed and quantified by the working gas filtering experiments.

Abstract:

In this paper, the aging effect of commercially available Geiger-Muller counters under working conditions is being considered from both theoretical and experimental point of view. In the experimental part lifetime curves for the commercial Geiger-Muller counter chamber are first recorded. After detection of the aging phenomena, the commercial chamber response to an impulse voltage is tested along with recording of the same response of the Geiger-Muller chamber model with conductive particles included. The law of similarity for the gaseous discharge is fulfilled both by the commercial Geiger-Muller chamber and by the chamber model with conductive particles. The results obtained from the U-test indicate that the aging of the Geiger-Muller chamber is mainly caused by the occurrence of a great number of conductive particles hovering inside the chamber. Some suggestions of how to reduce the aging effect due to conductive particles inside the Geiger-Muller chamber are given in the conclusion.

Abstract:

This paper discusses the process of functional aging of Geiger-Muller counters. Two types of Geiger-Muller counter chambers were characterized in an experiment using a combined constant voltage. Chamber A had a coaxial geometry and chamber B had a plan-parallel geometry. The experimental results indicate that the aging process was faster in the case of chambers with a coaxial geometry. The results are explained based on the process of electrical discharges in gasses.

Abstract:

X-ray diffraction has many applications in the chemical and metallurgical industries, but its techniques have been confined until recently to the laboratory and to highly trained personnel. Conventional procedure entails photographic exposure, processing, and density comparisons of the finished film strips.The Geiger counter spectrometer described below measures x-ray intensities and diffraction angles directly, without intermediate photographic steps. It is simple enough for unskilled operators performing routine industrial processes yet also meets the precise requirements of laboratory research. The instrument was developed at the Naval Research Laboratory, where it has been in regular use for the past two years.

A portable Geiger counter was evaluated for tracing the movements of radiolabeled Heliothis zea (Boddie) larvae in cotton and corn. In cotton, larvae used were labeled by injection of the parent females and phosphorus-32. These could easily be located using the Geiger counter. In corn, larvae were labeled topically so that pupation sites in the soil could be labeled. The percentage of these that could be located proved variable.

Abstract:

In this paper, the application of three-component gas mixtures as a working gas in Geiger-Mueller tubes was considered. In addition to the noble and quenching gas, an electronegative gas is used, at the same time, as the third component of gas mixture. This paper is mostly experimental. The experiments are carried out on the enlarged Geiger-Mueller counter tube model. By applying the similarity law for electric discharges in gases on the model and commercial Geiger-Mueller counting tubes, the model was verified. The obtained results showed that a small percentage of SF6 gas, in the working gas, stabilize operating point of Geiger-Mueller counter tubes and reduce dead time. <br><br><font color="red"><b> This article has been corrected.

Abstract:

Introduction. Industrial monitoring of pulsed bremsstrahlung radiation is associated with a number of challenges. Russia produces only three dosimeters that can be used for measuring pulsed bremsstrahlung radiation with a pulse duration of less than 10 gs. These dosimeters, in addition to being rather expensive, have a number of significant restrictions on the energy range (10 MeV) and the minimum pulse duration (10 ns). The DKG-RM1621 dosimeter with a Geiger-Muller counter can be used for dosimetry of photon radiation with energies up to 20 MeV. However, this device is not intended for dosimetry of pulsed radiation.Aim. Development of a methodology for conducting radiation monitoring of pulsed bremsstrahlung radiation sources using dosimeters with Geiger-Muller counters.Materials and methods. In 2021, measurements of the dose rate of pulsed bremsstrahlung radiation with a maximum energy of 3.0 MeV at pulse repetition rates of 50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, and 400 Hz were carried out using DKS- AT1123 (as a reference) and MKS-AT117M dosimeters with a Geiger-Muller counter.Results. A technique was developed for correcting the results of measuring the dose rate of pulsed bremsstrahlung radiation by a dosimeter equipped with a Geiger-Muller counter, which allows the dose rate of pulsed bremsstrahlung radiation to be measured with an additional error of less than 15 % in a practically significant range of dose rates. For the MKS- AT117M dosimeter at a pulse repetition rate of 400 Hz, this value was 320 gSv/h, which is sufficient for most practical tasks in radiation monitoring.Conclusion. The feasibility and possibility of successful application of dosimeters with Geiger-Muller counters for dosimetry of pulsed bremsstrahlung radiation using the proposed measurement technique with a limitation on the maximum measured dose rate is shown.

Abstract:

The design and construction of Geiger-Müller counters which will respond reliably to Mo K x-rays is described. The impulses are amplified and recorded mechanically with the aid of a thyratron circuit. The amplifying and counting circuit, and the counting mechanism, are also described. The time of recovery of the counters has been determined by the use of an oscillograph and found to be less than 0.001 sec. when the proper values are used for the resistance and capacitance of the counter circuit. It is shown that for counting rates up to 600 per minute there is less than a 1 percent correction due to the fact that the impulses are random in nature. Several fundamental tests are described, which have been applied to the counter and the circuit. These tests have shown the counter and the circuit to be a reliable method of measuring x-ray intensities. Graphs are shown of the diffraction patterns of NaCl and KC1 taken by means of the counters. These graphs duplicate the well-known diffraction patterns of these materials, thus giving additional evidence of the reliability of the counters.

Abstract:

ABSTRAK Secara alami radiasi hadir di lingkungan kita. Dalam kehidupan manusia, berdasarkan evolusi lingkungan, terdapat tingkat radiasi ionizing yang signifikan. Radiasi alfa dan beta merupakan jenis radiasi yang banyak ditemukan di sekitar. Manusia yang terpapar radiasi jenis beta mungkin memberikan beberapa risiko kesehatan eksternal untuk tubuhnya. Pengolahan limbah B3 pada rumah sakit sebagai peningkatan limbah berbahaya infeksius yang disebabkan oleh pandemi dikaitkan dengan risiko penularan virus. Pengembangan alat yang dapat menghitung tingkat radiasi dalam suatu ruangan pengelolaan limbah B3 bisa menjadi inovasi yang memungkinkan pengguna dapat mengawasi tingkat radiasi untuk menekan dampak radiasi bagi manusia. Untuk menjembatani kendala yang ada, maka penelitian ini merancang sebuah alat ukur radiasi menggunakan Geiger-Muller Counter berbantuan mikrokontroler Arduino untuk mengatasi masalah B3 yang ada di rumah sakit. Modul ini dirancang untuk membantu petugas pengolah limbah agar dapat melindungi diri dari paparan radiasi yang melebihi dosis radiasi. Modul geiger-muller terdiri dari Arduino uno sebagai peralatan kontrol dan LCD Nokia 5110 sebagai display hasil pengukuran. Modul Geiger-muller terdapat tabung Geiger M4011, mikrokontroler Arduino uno dan LCD Nokia 5110. Modul Geiger-Muller berhasil diujikan dengan ion chamber yang mengandung material radioaktif. Modul Geiger-Muller memberikan respon berupa suara/alarm dan tanda LED menyala berkedip Ketika mendeteksi peningkatan intensitas radiasi di sekitar tabung Geiger M4011. ABSTRACT Radiation is naturally present in our environment. In human life, based on the evolution of the environment, there is a significant level of ionizing radiation. Alpha and beta radiation are types of radiation that are commonly found around. Humans who are exposed to beta-type radiation may present some external health risks to their bodies. B3 waste treatment in hospitals as an increase in infectious hazardous waste caused by a pandemic is associated with the risk of virus transmission. The development of a tool that can calculate radiation levels in a B3 waste management room can be an innovation that allows users to monitor radiation levels to reduce the impact of radiation on humans. To bridge the existing obstacles, this study designed a radiation measuring instrument using the Geiger-Muller Counter assisted by an Arduino microcontroller to overcome the B3 problem in the hospital. The design of this module is designed to help waste treatment workers to protect themselves from radiation exposure that exceeds the radiation dose. The geiger-muller module consists of an Arduino uno as a control device and a Nokia 5110 LCD as a display of measurement results. The Geiger-Muller module contains a Geiger M4011 tube, an Arduino uno microcontroller and a Nokia 5110 LCD. The Geiger-Muller module has been successfully tested with an ion chamber containing radioactive material. The Geiger-Muller module responds in the form of sound/alarm and the LED flashes when it detects an increase in radiation intensity around the Geiger M4011 tube.

Abstract:

By making use of LabVIEW, this paper emulates the Time-To-Count measuring system with Geiger-Mueller counter. Results of the emulation indicate that compared with the conventional mode of pulse counting, under the condition of higher intensity of ionizing radiation, method of Time-To-Count can avoid negative effect of Geiger-Mueller counter’s long dead-time. However with ionizing radiation attenuating, the advantage of Time-To-Count will disappear gradually. According to the emulation, this paper also puts forward some suggestions to improve the Time-To-Count measuring system.

Abstract:

Since the nuclear energy leakage that occurred at the Fukushima nuclear power plant in Japan, people have paid more attention to the danger of environmental radiation. Environmental radiation is monitored using Geiger counters, which are not easy to obtain in some areas. Therefore, this research proposes an open-source and low-cost handheld Geiger counter that uses solar energy to charge lithium-ion batteries. Our design can provide a low-cost environmental radiation monitoring platform and effectively enhance the public’s scientific education awareness of radiation hazards. The measured dose rate can be output through the serial port, allowing a LoRa wireless network to transmit data to a database. When the sensing network deployed by the radiometer detects that the radiation value of the area is abnormally increased, it can issue an alarm to the government for the first time. Moreover, the low-power radiometer design can reduce energy consumption, reduce the burden on the ecological environment caused by the deployment of the sensing network, and provide sustainability for the environment.

Abstract:

The threat of radiation exposure is always present in modern world. In recent years, this threat has become even more pronounced due to Russian aggression on Ukrainian territory. Therefore, the need for remote data collection and analysis of radiation background information has become even more important, and research in the field of creating small, low-cost devices that can monitor radiation levels of a certain area in real-time and provide information to local government agencies responsible for the safety of populated areas can be considered relevant. Radiation background level monitoring is essential to ensuring that people are informed of any potential threats to their health. It is proposed to develop a dense network of monitoring stations that can collect and transmit data about background radiation in real time. Measurement results will be processed and stored on a resource that is available to both local authorities and public. The Message Queue Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol is used to transmit information, as it is durable, lightweight, and efficient. A hardware and software system for collecting and transmitting radioactivity values has been developed. The system is based on a module with Geiger counter tube, which is used to measure the level of radiation in the area. The module is connected to a microcontroller, which processes the data and transmits it to a central server. To summarize and process the measurement results, the Majordomo broker is used. It is installed on a remotely accessible network storage. In conclusion, the proposed system can ensure the safety of the public, allowing authorities, experts and trained personnel to quickly and efficiently respond to any potential radiation threats, protecting people from radiation exposure.

Measurements of ionizing and nonionizing particles are performed during the rupture tests of steel rods having different diameter. A ZnS ( Ag ) alpha detector, a Geiger counter and a 3 He proportional counter for neutrons are used. From the distributions of the recorded intensity maxima, different particles emissions are suggested to occur in broken and nonbroken samples. A hint for the emission of neutrons at rupture is also obtained. Such neutron emissions are predicted in the framework of the piezonuclear theory.

Abstract:

Any Geiger counter can be used as an effective cosmic ray detector on its own. In fact, it is known that even in the absence of a radioactive source, the instrument detects what is known as background radiation, which consists of various types of ionizing particles present in the environment. Remarkably, it is estimated that up to 15% of this background radiation is attributable to cosmic rays, high-energy particles originating from outer space. The remaining radiation detected by the Geiger counter originates from terrestrial sources, such as natural radioactivity in the ground and in the air. The main goal of this project is to build a muon detector for scientific and educational purposes using two commercial DIY Geiger counter kits and just a few additional components. To identify cosmic radiation from terrestrial radiation and improve the accuracy of cosmic ray measurements, the use of a coincident circuit is essential. This coincident circuit was introduced in cosmic ray physics by Walther Bothe and Bruno Rossi in the early 1930s and allows for the detection of a subatomic particle passing through two or more sensors, thereby reducing false positives and enhancing the reliability of cosmic ray detection. The following idea is an alternative replica of our AMD5 detectors, instruments that we have been using for years to teach and perform scientific experiments in the cosmic ray field under the umbrella of the ADA project (2023 Particles, Arcani et al.). The resulting device, named AMD5ALI, offers a reliable and inexpensive solution for the same goal, making it a valuable tool for both educational purposes and scientific surveys. Practical applications range from cosmic ray physics to radioactivity, including the relationship between cosmic ray flux and meteorology, the zenithal effect, the Regener–Pfotzer curve in the atmosphere, and the anti-correlation of cosmic particle intensity with solar activity.

Abstract:

We present a numerical validation of the scaling group presented by Schmid and Geiger ((2012) Water Resour. Res. 48, 3) for Spontaneous Imbibition (SI) through simulating a core sample bounded by the wetting fluid. We combine the results of the simulations with the semi-analytical model for counter-current spontaneous imbibition presented by Schmid et al. ((2011) Water Resour. Res. 47, 2) to validate the upscaling of laboratory experiments to field dimensions using dimensionless time. We then present a detailed parametric study on the effect of Boundary Conditions (BC) and characteristic length to compare imbibition assisted oil recovery with several types of boundary conditions. We demonstrate that oil recovery was the fastest and most efficient when all faces are open to flow. We also demonstrate that all cases scale with the non-dimensionless time suggested by Schmid and Geiger ((2012) Water Resour. Res. 48, 3) and show a close match to the numerical simulation and the semi-analytical solution. Moreover, we discuss how the effect of constructing a model with varying grid sizes and dimensions affects the accuracy of the results through comparing the results of the 2-D and 3-D models. We observe that the 3-D model proved superior in the accuracy of the results to simulate simple counter-current SI. However, we deduce that 2-D models yield satisfying enough results in a timely manner in the One End Open (OEO) and Two Ends Open (TEO) cases, compared to 3-D models which are time-consuming. We finally conclude that the non-dimensionless time of Schmid and Geiger ((2012) Water Resour. Res. 48, 3) works well with counter-current SI cases regardless of the boundary condition imposed on the core.

Abstract:

Limit of detection (LoD) is a term that is used to characterize the sensitivity of an analytical method. The existing limitation of the sensitivity of analysis using modern mass spectrometry methods has been experimentally shown to be a limiting factor in the application of proteomic technologies in medicine. This article proposes a concept of a new technology that will set a new vector of development in the development of systems for solving problems of medical diagnostics and deals with theoretical and practical aspects of creating a new technology for the detection of single biomacromolecules (in particular, proteins) in biological samples. Such technology should be based on the principle of signal registration similar to that used in a Geiger counter (also known as a Geiger–Müller counter or G-M counter), a device that automatically counts the number of ionizing particles that hit it. This counter is free from probabilistic components; it registers a signal if there is at least one target molecule in the analysis chamber. Predictive medical diagnostics require technology based on methods where sensitivity allows for the detection of single marker molecules in a biological sample volume of 1–10 µL, the smallest volume of biomaterial used in laboratory diagnostics. Creation of a detector with a sensitivity of 10−18 M would allow for the detection of one molecule in 1 µL of the sample, which fundamentally makes this approach analogous to a G-M counter for solutions. To date, bioanalytical methods are limited to a sensitivity of 10−12 M (which is approximately 1 million molecules per 1 μL), which is insufficient to capture the early stages of pathological processes.

Abstract:

The conventional course of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) treatment requires surgical resection followed by radioactive iodine (131I) therapy (RAIT). Patients are advised to drink plenty of water, as 131I gets eliminated through the kidneys and the burden of extra radiation is reduced. Treating a case of DTC with chronic kidney disease (CKD) by RAIT is challenging. As a result, when planning hemodialysis in a DTC patient with CKD, the dose of 131I, the timing of the dialysis, and radiation safety must all be carefully considered. Because 131I is dialyzable, a standard Geiger counter can observe and detect it. A post-thyroidectomized case of DTC with CKD was successfully treated with 131I while continuing scheduled peritoneal hemodialysis (HD) simultaneously during hospital isolation, as reported here. This case report was aimed at sharing the HD management procedures, challenges to any adverse effects, and exposure doses of 131I-treated DTC patients in their immediate post-ablative days. Geiger counter measurements in the patient after HD following 131 I administration revealed levels of less than 4.20 Sv/h on the fifth day, allowing safe hospital discharge in this case.

Abstract:

Multiple atomic accidents urge for the development of radiation monitoring systems which has the capability to measure and display radiation level in the contaminated zones. This paper presents the design and implementation of such systems using Geiger Müller (GM) counter nuclear kit which can be used in any radiation contaminated area. GM counter transmits readings of radiation at fixed intervals to the Arduino microcontroller in real-time. This proposed system utilizes liquid crystal display (LCD) as an interface for displaying the information. This system is easy to use and modular. The experimental data and the obtained results shows that this proposed radiation monitoring system is feasible and efficient.

Abstract:

Sharp upper and lower bounds are derived for the solution of renewal equations. These include as special cases exponential inequalities, some of which have been derived for specific renewal equations. Together with the well-known Cramér-Lundberg asymptotic estimate, these bounds give additional information about the behaviour of the solution. Nonexponential bounds, which are of use in connection with defective renewal equations, are also obtained. The results are then applied in examples involving the severity of insurance ruin, age-dependent branching processes, and a generalized type II Geiger counter.

Abstract:

The paper shows the possibility of determining of the radon by the radiometer on a base of multi-channel time analyzer of beta – decay products of radon. The radiometer consist of an electrostatic aerosol collector combined with the air intake, Geiger-Muller counter for detection of beta particles and multi-channel time analyzer. Accumulation time of aerosol sample takes up to 20 min, the time data processing is done by the radiometer about 5 hours. The data processing is at off-line mode using the computer decomposition process of decay spectrum.

Abstract:

In February 1968 Ray Fitzgerald, Klaus Keil and myself published in Science a communication titled “Solid-State Energy-Dispersion Spectrometer for Electron Microprobe X-ray Analysis”. The authors describe the use of a lithium-drifted silicon detector for the direct identification of x-rays, without a diffracting crystal, in an electron probe. The subject of this paper was to modify profoundly the development of x-ray microanalysis in the years to follow.Pulse-height analysis of gamma rays detected in scintillation counters was widely used at the time. For radiation of energies below 30 keV, gas proportional counters were also employed. In elementary analysis by x-rays the poor energy resolution of these detectors limited the application of such a procedure, although single-channel pulse height analysis was employed as an adjunct to crystal spectrometers.In 1951, Raymond Castaing in his thesis described his invention of the electron probe microanalyzer, created by adding to a transmission electron microscope a curved-crystal spectrometer which focused the x-rays emitted by the specimen into a Geiger-Muller counter.

Abstract:

In 2011, the biggest nuclear accident since Chernobyl took place at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan. Soon after the nuclear accident, a video appeared on YouTube in which a rogue power plant worker walked towards one of the site’s CCTV cameras and pointed to its centre while watching his own image being streamed live on his smartphone. Despite it clearly being a reinterpretation of Centers, the 1971 performance by Vito Acconci, this essay argues that the Fukushima reenactment not only questioned the cultural paradigms that grounded Acconci’s original gesture, but also signaled the urgent need for humankind to reconsider its own ontological and epistemological grounds in the face of imminent extinction. By comparing Vito Acconci’s Centers with its Fukushima reenactment, the essay tells the history of Modernity and of its failure as a project of human emancipation, grounded on a fantasy of human mastery of ‘Nature.’ Author(s): João Florêncio Title (English): Dancing to the Rhythm of a Geiger Counter: Modern(ist) Narcissism and the Anthropo(s)cenic Shock Journal Reference: Identities: Journal for Politics, Gender and Culture, Vol. 10, No. 1-2 (Summer-Winter 2013) Publisher: Institute of Social Sciences and Humanities – Skopje  Page Range: 111-122 Page Count: 12 Citation (English): João Florêncio, “Dancing to the Rhythm of a Geiger Counter: Modern(ist) Narcissism and the Anthropo(s)cenic Shock,” Identities: Journal for Politics, Gender and Culture, Vol. 10, No. 1-2 (Summer-Winter 2013): 111-122.
