LOS ANGELES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (KABC) -- When you visit Los Angeles International Airport, you likely will not notice it. As you travel through the airport, hundreds of monitors are sweeping for ...

Silicon carbide radiation detectors represent a significant advance in semiconductor technology due to their wide bandgap, robustness, and high-temperature tolerance. These detectors are engineered to ...

Nuclear track detectors offer a robust means for recording and analysing the passage of ionising radiation through sensitive materials. These detectors, frequently ...

Maintaining international nuclear security requires tracking and monitoring fissile materials, such as plutonium and uranium. Standoff radiation detectors, which can measure radioactivity from afar, ...

The giant confinement building encapsulating the Chornobyl nuclear reactor that exploded nearly 40 years ago is smooth and curved—built with scientific precision. Installed in 2016, the structure was ...

Technology provider Thermo Scientific says its Niton-branded hand-held analyzers pair well with its radiation detection offerings. Thermo Scientific calls its RadEye radiation detection product a ...

In their search for dark matter, scientists from the XENON Collaboration are using one of the world's most sensitive dark matter detectors, XENONnT at the Gran Sasso Laboratory of the National ...

A team of researchers from the Shanghai Institute of Applied Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has developed an ...

A recent study offers proof of feasibility for using cosmic radiation detectors to discover underground spaces. The detectors identify muons—particles created when cosmic radiation collides with Earth ...

A number of instruments are heavily dependent on the performance of the detector at their core, including pyranometers ...

There was a recent recall of so-called ‘radioactive shrimp’ that were potentially contaminated with cesium-137 (Cs-137). But contamination isn’t an all-or-nothing affair, so you might wonder exactly ...
