The general need for improved detection performance and reduced decision time for portal monitors, freight container scanners, and mobile search systems is being achieved with systems utilizing High-Purity Germanium (HPGe) detectors. Highly specialized software analyzes the spectroscopic data to produce accurate results in live time. To meet the need, a new generation monitor has been developed...

Gamma-ray spectrometry is a very powerful tool for radioactivity measurements. The gamma-ray spectrometer laboratory in Centre for Energy Research and Training (CERT), Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, Nigeria is accredited to perform measurements of radioactive content of samples collected from the environment, food chain or industrial products with the aid of a high resolution HPGe detector. Fo...

Distribution of cerebral blood flow was measured with an array of 200 ultra-pure germanium radiation detectors and 133-Xe by inhalation. The array "sees" the head as a composite of different subvolumes and enables measurement of the concentration history of tracer every 1-10 sec in each subvolume simultaneously. Subvolume mean flows, (fm), and partition coefficients, lambda m, are derived by co...

Radioactivity was measured for 170 cow's milk samples in Salah-Din governorate. Samples were by a gamma spectrometry system, using high purity germanium (HPGe) detector. The detector shielded 10 cm all sides with cadmium copper the inner sides. selected characteristic peaks detection of different ware 1460kev K-40. energy calibration performed set standard ray sources Eu-152. results show prese...

We propose two types of neutron-$\gamma_1$-$\gamma_2$ triple coincidence detectors (not constructed) to chase gamma transitions produce p-nuclei following the neutron emission in $(\gamma, n)$ reaction. Neutrons are detected with 24 $^3$He counters embedded a polyethylene moderator Type I detector and 6 liquid scintillation II detector, respectively. $\gamma$ rays high-purity germanium four LaB...

DANTE is a new Digital Pulse Processor (DPP) developed for fluorescence detectors, like silicon drift detectors (SDDs) or High Purity Germanium (HPGe), used in X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) and Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) experiments at synchrotron facilities. Its main features are its optimal energy resolution peak stability detector count rate values up to 1-2 Mcps, enhanced rejection of pile-up...

Introduction Artificial and natural radionuclides are found in diverse environmental compartments, such as water, soil, rocks, vegetables, animals, and human body tissues. As such, humans and environments are at constant exposure of these radiation types. In this research investigated specific activities of radionuclide and dose assessment of some species of mushrooms. Materials and Methods In ...
