ZC0022 G-M Sensor is used to study radioactivity experiment. It is mainly used to measure intensity of γ-ray and β-ray.
Specification
| Range | 0~40000c/min |
| Resolution | 1c/min |
| Accuracy | ±2% |
Usage
1. Connect the sensor to computer by USB cable.
2. Open the SWR iLab v8.0.
3. Click 'New' to create new experimental template.
Notes
Do not hit or knock the probe. Otherwise it may damage it.
The sensor must be working with external power supply. Thus, connect datalogger to power supply. Otherwise, probe will not work properly.
G-M Sensor can not be used to measure the energy of the incident particle but only measure the quantity.
Typical experiment
- Measure background counting rate
- Radioactive shield
- Explore relationship between radioactive intensity and distance
