Overview: DETECTORS

for Radiation Monitoring

Detectors for nuclear measurement have to transform

the physical quantity “nuclear radiation” (e.g. particle

fl ux or energy) into an electrical signal. Especially,

charged particles generated by the interaction of

radiation with matter are used for that purpose.

The detector program of Mirion Technologies (MGPI

H&B) GmbH offers ionization chambers, scintillation

counters, silicon detectors and GM-counters, the

majority of them are type tested.
