Abstract:
The invention relates to a scanning radiographic device consisting of an ionising radiation source, a collimator (10) in the form of a longitudinal slit for forming a flat radiation beam (3) and a device for recording the radiation ray passed through a studied object. Said radiation ray recording device comprises data read out, processing and output electronic units (12) and at least one ionising particle detector. A flat capacitor provided with a nonslotted anode (7) and a cut into strips cathode (8) is arranged in the detector body (6) where the radiation passed through the studied object comes up. The length of the strips is selected according to a condition that X-radiation is entirely absorbed by gas. An individual accumulating capacitor whose charge is read out by an electronic unit is connected to each strip, thereby enabling the device to operate in an integrated mode. Said detector is also provided with additional inserts (9, 11) which are arranged at a radiation input and at the end along the ray trace, thereby reducing X-ray losses, setting a required resolution in the scanning direction and reducing requirements to a permissible vibration level and a calibration of the scanning system components
Abstract:
Die Erfindung betrifft eine abtastende, röntgenografische Anlage, die eine lonisierungsstrahlungsquelle, einen Kollimator in Form eines länglichen Spalts zur Erzeugung eines flachen Strahlungsgangs und ein Registrierungsgerät des Strahlungsbündels, das durch das zu untersuchende Objekt hindurchgeht, mit einer Ablese-, Datenverarbeitungs- und Ausgabeelektronik und mindestens einen Detektor der ionisierenden Teilchen umfasst. Im Detektorgehäuse, in das die durch das zu untersuchende Objekt hindurchgehende Strahlung gelangt, ist ein ebener Kondensator mit einer Vollanode und einer in Streifen unterteilten Kathode angeordnet. Die Streifenlänge ist so ausgelegt, dass eine vollständige Absorption der lonisierungsstrahlung im Gas gewährleistet ist. An jedem Streifen ist ein Speicherkondensator angeschlossen, dessen Ladung von der Elektronik abgelesen wird. Im Detektor sind ein dielektrisches Mittel und ein zusätzlicher Körper am Eingang der Strahlung bzw. am Ende des Strahlungspfads vorgesehen, wodurch die Verluste der Ionisierungsstrahlung vermindert werden, die erforderliche Auflösung in Abtastrichtung gewährleistet wird und Anforderungen an das zulässige Vibrationsniveau und der Justierung einzelner Teile der abtastenden Anlage vermindert werden.
Abstract:
An ionization chamber can stably measure a weak ionizing radiation with high sensitivity. The ionization chamber comprises an electrically conductive charge collecting electrode (32) having a magnetic substance (30) or a permanent magnet; an electromagnet (34) for positioning the charge collecting electrode (32) in non-contact with the other part of the ionization chamber; a position sensor (36,38) for detecting the position of the charge collecting electrode; a circuit (40) for feedback-controlling the magnetic force of the electromagnet to maintain the charge collecting electrode at the substantially same position; and ionization current detecting circuit (42) for detecting an ionization current collected at the charge collecting electrode by ionization due to radiations applied to the ionization chamber.
Abstract:
An ionization chamber and a radiation measurement and radioactive isotope nuclide discriminating method using the ionization chamber are provided to measure radiation dose effectively and improve the accuracy of radioactive isotope nuclide discrimination by forming a coplanar anode electrode structure in the ion chamber. An ionization chamber(1) includes one coplanar anode electrode structure(10) and a cathode electrode(20). The coplanar anode electrode structure has a circular cross section and includes a first and a second electrode, wherein an insulating layer is formed lengthwise between the first and the second electrode in order to prevent electric connection between the electrode.
