Description

ABSORBERS WITH HOLDER (RADIATION STUDY) SET 24

• A set of 24 different plates used to study the absorption of radioactive energies. The plates range from Tissue Paper and very thin foils for Alpha particle absorption to thicker aluminium foils and plates for Beta particle absorption to lead plates for Gamma particle absorption.
• Each absorber has an active area of 60x60mm and the complete set is housed in a strong cardboard container with a plastic insert for the storing of each absorber.
• In addition to absorbers, the set contains 3x plastic plates used for supporting the thick lead plates in Castles where the lead plates are too thick to fit the grooves in the Castle sides.
• The set includes also a strong spring loaded plunger and base as a holder for both the radioactive source and the absorber so that these items are always in the same relative positions for reproducible experiments.
