- Synopsis
- This is a two-page document showing labelled diagrams of an apparatus for measuring absorption and penetration of atomic radiation, and how different materials absorb or block atomic radiation. There is a locator dot shown on each page, which will be at the top left when the image is the correct way up. The diagram on page two is surrounded by a dashed line image border. Page 1: This diagram shows the apparatus for measuring the number of particles absorbed by a material. It is seen from the side in cross section. The radioactive source is on the centre left of the page, the absorber in the centre and the Geiger tube, (the detector) on the centre right. Page 2: This diagram shows how paper, aluminium and lead block or transmit alpha, beta and gamma radiation. The radiation travels from the left of the page and strikes three sheets of the materials, which are seen from the side.
