Detectors The energy loss of particles in matter can be used detect and identify those particles. There are different types of “detectors”: - Gas-filled counters - Semi-conductor counters (Germanium, Silicon, NaI,….) - Scintillation counters (Organic Inorganic: Solid, liquid) Figures in this presentation are from “Introductory nuclear physics” by Keneth Krane. Gas-filled counters An electric field is used to separate and count the ions (or electrons) formed by the passage of radiation through the detector Proportional counter – Geiger Mueller Counter Position sensitive PPAC In the
