Wireless Geiger Counter - PS-3238
This Wireless Geiger Counter detects alpha, beta, and gamma ionizing radiation.
Product Summary
The PASCO Wireless Geiger Counter counts beta, gamma and alpha radiation particles as they enter the Geiger–Müller detector tube inside the counter. Designed for easy mounting, the Geiger Counter provides superior position control in inverse square law labs, as well as an audible beep to indicate the detection of ionizing radiation. The front plastic snout fits conveniently inside the NU-3344 Sample Holder stand (available separately).
With the Wireless Geiger Counter, students can wirelessly control the high voltage supplied to the Geiger–Müller tube inside the counter, enabling them to make measurements of counts/interval for different tube voltages. They can also plot counts/interval versus tube voltages to experimentally observe the Geiger plateau characteristics of the tube.
