Radiological analysis
NuTeC is specialised in low-level radiological analysis of materials containing enhanced concentrations of natural and artificial radionuclides.
Research equipment for radiological analysis
- High Purity Germanium (HPGe) detector (Mirion) model BE5075-7500SI
- Low level gamma spectroscopic analysis
- Nuclear lab for handling of liquid and solid materials
- Leaching studies
- Determination of radon exhalation and emanation from industrial residues and construction materials via exhalation chambers
- Pretreatment of residues for characterisation or reuse
- Mobile detectors for advanced radiological analysis
- Timepix-3 gamma camera (Advapix, CdTe sensor)
- The Timepix 3 detector can be used for particle tracking and imaging and is particular useful for the study of cosmic radiation. The Timepix 3 detector was developed at CERN and is used by NASA to track cosmic radiation.
- Hand held probes for on-site gamma spectroscopy
- Several types of LaBr3(Ce), NaI(Tl), CZT hand held probes for on-site gamma spectroscopy.
- Radon monitors
- Sarad Radon scout
- Sun Nuclear radon monitor
- Radon Eye
- Timepix-3 gamma camera (Advapix, CdTe sensor)
