Good video! It's worth noting that pancake GM tubes are calibrated to 662 keV gammas, and will over respond to sub 200 keV gammas including the 60 keV gammas emitted by am241. So the device is still probably over responding a fair bit, but it does give you a reasonable rough idea of the correct does rate. It's also a bit weird to measure dose rate on contact, measuring it from a couple feet away with additional calculations to correct for the over response would give you an accurate risk assessment of the external gamma rate (which is almost zero). Of course special precaution should still be taken for Am241 foils, as the internal dose is extremely high, so not messing around with the foil and preventing contamination is the biggest concern.

Is er een uitleg hoe de motor te testen buiten de regelaar om? Ik denk dat ik ook een defecte Triac heb, maar ziet er aan de buitenkant nog goed uit.
@AJApper
@AJApper Ай бұрын
Als de triac kapot is blijft hij in geleiding en werkt de motor dus op maximaal vermogen. Bij mij bleek de motor met de triac in positie al te draaien op 10 V gelijkspanning, wat mij onmiddellijk had moeten leren dat de triac kapot was. Een triac hoort niet te geleiden bij zo’n lage gelijkspanning. Hoe de triac er van buiten uitziet zegt niets over zijn functioneren. Als je de triac unit verwijdert kun je de motor aansluiten op een lage DC of AC spanning en kijken of ie goed is.

Zelf heb ik een Miele complete c3 (black diamond ecoline) op FB marketplaats gekocht. Hij vindt echter dat die oververhit raakt(terwijl dit niet zo is) en gaat dan lager toeren en stopt zelfs na een minuut of 10 met stofzuigen. Weet u waar dat aan zou kunnen liggen?

Lastig. Je zou erachter moeten komen of er een temperatuursensor is die het systeem gebruikt om die ' oververhitting' vast te stellen.

So you can controle the temperature (3°c-10°c) If you want your beer at room temperature. Just turn your machine off after getting a beer.

Yes, linear attenuation coefficient (µ) for Iridium is lower than for lead, but its mass attenuation coefficient (µ/rho, in cm^2/g) which corrects for density is only slightly less than for Pb. So, indeed, for 1.25 MeV gamma rays, a 1 cm Iridium layer would be as effective as a 2 cm layer of Pb.

Does the same principle happen with radium
@AJApper
@AJApper 7 ай бұрын
Yes, it does. However, Ra-226 decay is more complicated than Cs-137 and Co-60, generating lots of peaks in its gamma spectrum. Apart from the famous Pb-214 peaks at 242, 295 and 352 keV there are also Bi-214 peaks. They all will generate their own backscatter peaks, Compton continuum and Compton edges, making it difficult to interpret the spectrum. Nevertheless, a higher than usual backscatter peak due to gamma ray reflection in the aluminum block might occur, but it might be obscured due to the many other peaks. I did not test this. I thought it would be better to look at simple isotopes with clear photo peaks.

Hi Lorenzo, a Radium-226 source not only emits 186 keV but a lot of higher energy peaks also, the famous 241, 295 and 352 keV from Pb-214, than Bi-214 at 609 and 768 keV and Pa-234m at 1001. That is why you measured a low factor. Ra-226 is a component of the U-238 decay chain. Radium-226 is a difficult source to use in this experiment because its decay involves so many different gamma energies. It is easier to use an isotope with one prominent photopeak.

@@AJApper but the average of the peaks you described (relative to how intense each peak is) shouldn’t be around 600KeV? So about the attenuation factor for shielding cesium which is 5.5… Mine is still too far off right? I know that radium is not ideal, but it’s what I have (in large quantity) and I need to shield it to at least 1/8 of original activity… Should I use the factor I found or it’s wiser to use a higher factor?

@@Telyron Mean value is not useful since µ value declines sharply with increasing gamma levels. Thus the effect of the higher gamma energies contributes more to the measured attenuation value. Besides, I forgot to mention their are a lot of peaks in the gamma spectrum of Radium-226 above 1000 keV arising from Bismuth-214 : 1120, 1238, 1377, 1407, 1729, 1764, 1847, 2118, 2204, 2293, 2447 and 3053 keV.

Awesome video! I finally got a 1" NaI:Tl GammaSpectacular spectrometer kit, and I use the PRA software with it! It works great, even though the efficiency is lower, since I'm using a smaller crystal. I'd love to try CeBr3, from Berkley Nucleonics, but it's so expensive! HPGe would be the best of the best! I was able to identify Kr-85 (514 keV) from some old Western Electric electron tubes, ca. 11/1973, 15 μCi, which both only give me about 500 CPM on my Inspector USB Geiger-Müller counter, now that the activity is only about 0.637 μCi, 49 years later. I'm going to try Pu-239 next (17.1 μCi, total) from old Soviet smoke detectors, to see if I get any of the low-energy gamma energies, like Am-241 and _maybe_ U-237 from Pu-241, which undergoes β- decay, which emits very low-energy-about 20 keV β- particles, and on occasion, α decay to U-237. The problem is that plutonium isotopes have low branching ratios for gamma rays. It's easily detectable up close, with my Inspector USB Geiger-Müller counter, however, a sheet of paper blocks _almost_ all of the radiation, being mostly α particles. Even my CD V-700 on "X1" only goes up to about 100 CPM (β and gamma) per source. I was able to detect some gamma energies from my trinitite, but at a lower efficiency, since your NaI(Tl) crystal is twice the diameter of my detector. Anyways, _excellent_ video on my favorite hobby! I'm glad to see when you post a new video, as they're very well done! You're a smart man, and your methodical approach is paramount! Very well done!

Perhaps. The scintillator crystals in these devices are small : Raysid has a 5 cm3 CsI(Tl) crystal and RadiaCode 101 contains a 1 cm3 CsI(Tl) crystal. This means efficiency will be low. I registered the Trinitite gammaspectrum with a Scionix 2" scintillator, around 100 cm3, and it took several hours to get a decent spectrum. Although efficiency is not linear with respect to scintillator size I assume it will take many many hours to get an interpretable spectrum with the devices you mentioned. After all, gamma radiation level of the Trinitite is only slightly above background. Circumstances, especially temperature, should also be perfectly constant during these hours, because otherwise energies will be shifted a bit which deteriorates the spectrum accuracy.

I've installed this hack, but when the temperature display is over 3C the fan (and cooler ?) continues to run, is this normal ? Surely the PD machine is factory set to cool to 3C and if you change the NTC resistance it will only make the machine sense a higher temperature and try to cool it ?
@AJApper
@AJApper 2 жыл бұрын
The combined resistance of the NTC and the potmeter determines the PD's cooling behaviour. If the NTC resistance declines, due to increasing environmental temperature (remember, NTC means negative temperature coefficient, the higher the temperature, the lower the NTC value, also demonstrated in the video) the PD starts cooling until NTC value rises and resembles 3 gr C. But we artificially add an extra resistance, the potmeter, and thus are able to shift the setpoint for starting the cooling to a higher temperature. The PD senses a higher resistance value and thus "thinks" temperature is low enough and cooling is not necessary. This way beer temperature can incline to 7 of 8 degrees before cooling starts.

Does this mean there is some beta radiation coming out of Am241?? Or is it gamma, but it is just so weak, that it cannot penetrate even the beta shield? Thanks for any advice.

Am241 emits alpha particles and low energy gamma, mostly at 59.5 keV but also at even lower energies. It emits no beta. The pancake geigerdetector is able to measure the alpha particles but is not very sensitive with respect to gamma rays. I think your beta shield, usually a few mm of aluminum, also shields a substantial amount of the low energy gamma radiation from Am241. A thin plastic layer doesn't attenuate even low energy gamma.
