Scientists have created a perovskite-based gamma-ray detector that surpasses traditional nuclear medicine imaging technology. The device delivers sharper, faster, and safer scans at a fraction of the ...

A lead halide material can detect and image single gamma-ray photons with both high-spatial and high-energy resolution ...

High energy scans or the body looking for tumors or infections could be greatly improved by adopting perovskite detectors instead of the fragile or low-resolution options currently in use, a new study ...

White and green electromagnetic detectors surround mounds of dirt covering instruments to detect muon particles originating from outer space at the Large High-Altitude Air Shower Observatory (LHAASO) ...

Australia's SpIRIT nanosatellite has snapped its first "selfie" from space, marking a successful start to its mission.

When you think of a radiation detector, you’re probably thinking of a Geiger tube and its high voltage circuitry. That isn’t the only way to measure gamma radiation, though, and [Alan] has a great ...

All three versions of AstroPix sensor chips are on display from the oldest on the left to version 3 on the right. Version three, which began testing in April 2023 has bigger pixels and improved ...

Gamma-ray detectors constitute an essential tool in many scientific and industrial applications, ranging from environmental monitoring and nuclear medicine to safeguards verification. Central to their ...

Scientists have developed a game-changing perovskite material that can be used as a cheaper and highly efficient alternative to gamma-ray detectors. Perovskites are materials made up of organic ...

HAIZI MOUNTAIN, China (AP) — Astrophysicist Cao Zhen opens a steel hatch on a windswept Tibetan Plateau and climbs down a ladder into inky darkness. His flashlight picks out a boat floating on a pool ...
