    Abstract: An ion filter used for an electron multiplier includes an insulating substrate; a first conductive layer formed on one main surface of the substrate; and a second conductive layer formed on another main surface of the substrate. The ion filter has a plurality of through-holes formed along a thickness direction of the substrate. The one main surface of the substrate is disposed at a downstream side in a moving direction of electrons in a chamber of the electron multiplier and the other main surface of the substrate is disposed at an upstream side in the moving direction of electrons in the chamber of the electron multiplier. A first thickness of the first conductive layer formed on the one main surface of the substrate is thicker than a second thickness of the second conductive layer on the other main surface of the substrate.

    Abstract: A radioactive gas measurement apparatus comprises: a radiation measurement cell comprising an inlet pipe and a discharge pipe, the radiation measurement cell introducing and discharging a radioactive gas containing a nuclide to be measured and a positron emitter nuclide through the inlet pipe and the discharge pipe; a radiation detector for measuring a radiation generated from the radioactive gas; and a radiation collimator allowing the radiation measurement cell to communicate with the radiation detector and setting a predetermined radiation measurement geometry condition between the radiation measurement cell and the radiation detector. Then, as the predetermined radiation measurement geometry condition, an inner wall area of the radiation measurement cell which the radiation detector views through the radiation collimator is set equal to or less than a half of a total inner wall area of the radiation measurement cell.

    Abstract: The invention relates to an improved method for fabricating the amplification gap of an avalanche particle detector in which two parallel electrodes are spaced apart by dielectric spacer elements. A foil including a bulk layer made of dielectric material sandwiched by two mutually parallel metallic electrodes is provided, and holes are formed in one of the metallic layers by means of photolithography. The amplification gap is then formed in the bulk layer by means of carefully controlled etching of the bulk material through the holes formed in one of the metallic layers. The invention not only provides a simplified fabrication process, but also results in a detector with enhanced spatial and energy resolution.

    Abstract: A proportional-type detector for the detection of low levels of radioactivity, such as alpha and beta particles generated by radioactive materials. In the preferred embodiment, this detector has a pancake-shaped cavity with a disk-shaped base and a cylindrical wall, with at least one anode member traversing the cavity. This anode member is maintained at an elevated potential so as to multiply and collect electrons formed within a counting gas within the cavity as a result of interaction between the radioactivity and a counter gas cavity. A perforated grid member, in one embodiment being a spiral coil, is substantially concentric with the anode member to provided a uniform electric field around the anode member. In the preferred embodiment, spacing between turns of the spiral grid is equal to or less than twice the radial distance between the anode member and the inside diameter of the grid. While an opening into the cavity can be covered with a window that is transparent to the radioactivity (the alpha and beta particles) for the retention of the counting gas, improved operation is obtained without a window for most applications.

    Abstract: Proportional counters for the detection and measurement of radioactive surface contaminations are provided with at least two flat window faces enclosing an angle and being formed by a thin foil spread or stretched by a framework including thin rods arranged along the inner edges of contacting window faces, to which rods the foil may be adhered. A perforated lattice or grid cage serves in particular to protect the thin window against any contact, the cage provides for a spacing of about double rod thickness between the framework and the controlled surface. Preferred is a polygonal and in particular hexagonal lattice whose grid wires or strips do not lie in the main scanning direction. Particularly convenient for checking pipelines are, for example, cylindrical measuring probes comprising window foils extending over and perhaps adhered to a circularly arranged frame of thin rods.
