radiation detection technology

Radiation detection technology involves tools that identify and measure invisible energy emitted by radioactive materials. These devices, such as Geiger counters or scintillation detectors, detect particles or gamma rays by producing electrical signals when radiation interacts with special materials inside them. This helps in monitoring radiation levels for safety, security, and scientific research. They translate the energy from radiation into readable signals, allowing us to understand where radiation is present and at what intensity without being exposed to it directly.
