Laboratory of Nuclear Physics

This equipment allows students to carry out several experiments of nuclear physics.
A computer data acquisition system is available via USB or serial port The software enables to gather data in real time with automatic transfer to a file.
The complete PC control of all the data and of data acquisition rate, as well as of Geiger-Muller counter enables to realize one’s own experiments.
The functions of spreadsheet enable to analyze data, setup, to plot diagrams and to print a copy of the screen.

TECHNICAL CHARACTERISTICS
Inputs: BNC connector for GM, MHV for sparking detection
High voltage: 0-1200 V, adjustable in digital way by increments of 10 V via hardware, or by increments of 5 V with software included
Display: LED 6-decades. It displays pulses, time, programming time, CPM, CPS, alarm level and high voltage
Audio : digital control of the volume of counting rhythm and alarm point
Modes: counting programming time, scheduled number of runs, counts/min ; counts/second ; setting alarm level, setting high voltage 0-1200 V, start/stop/reset, data transfer, as well as the pause time between two subsequent detections
Time/counting : programming time in seconds 1-9, 10-90, 100- 900, 1K-9K, 10K-90K, 100K-900K, programming detections, CPM, CPS, programming alarm

Power: input of 9.0 Vdc 500 mA
included software: it displays (in real time) the simulated analog rateometer with self-alignment, or a digital rateometer in CPM or CPS, counting, time elapsed, programming time, setting high voltage, acquisition time and number of detections.

SET OF SOURCES
Set of 5 sources: Polonium-210, 0.1 μCi ; Césium-137, 5 μCi ; Sr- 900, 0.1 μCi ; TI-204, 1 μCi ; CO60, 1 μCi

GEIGER-MULLER TUBE
Complete detection system that uses a GM tube with diameter of 35 mm ; it is provided with a window for detecting Alpha, Beta, Gamma radiations.
The plastic support shows some grooves for inserting proper supports for radioactive tablets for the experimental study of inverse-square law.

ABSORPTION SET
Complete set of absorbers. It includes 20 calibrated absorbers of 5 mg/cm2 to 7200 mg/cm2 for being used in studies of attenuation
of α, ß and γ rays.
These absorbers are made of plastic material, of aluminium and of lead.
