gamma-rays emitted from the ground surface relate to the primary mineralogy and geochemistryof the bedrock, and the secondary weathered materials. this information can contribute significantly to anunderstanding of the geochemical and pedogenetic history of a region. the main aim of this paper was to study the relationship between ground gamma-ray data and basement geochemistry in the lese catc...

Recent technological developments and new topology designs have made semiconductor drift detectors ideal devices for high-resolution x-ray spectrometry. In this paper the basic topology of a semiconductor drift detector with on-chip electronics specially designed for x-ray spectrometry is reviewed. These devices have been used for the first time in x-ray and g-ray spectroscopy applications. In ...
