Technical Evaluation of the Prototype ORNL Alpha Radiation Detector/Probe withthe AN/PDR-77 Radiac Set

摘要

A new Alpha particle detector, designed and fabricated by the Oak Ridge NationalLaboratory (ORNL) was procured and technically evaluated by the U.S. Army. Two of the three detectors procured were tested under guidelines obtained from U.S. Army requirements for an Alpha detector probe. The probes represent the state-of-the-art in Alpha particle detector design and fabrication affording ruggedness in
