Radiation detection and nuclear materials equipment to enhance education and research in nuclear and radiological engineering at the Georgia Institute of Technology
Abstract
The Nuclear and Radiological Engineering (NRE) program at The Georgia Institute of
Technology upgraded and enhanced its academic and research activities with the purchase and
installation of equipment and instrumentation in four separate areas. The four areas addressed
were:
1. Crystal growth furnace for nuclear and radiation detector materials applications
2. Addition of an associated particle system to existing neutron generator
3. Implementation of two liquid scintillation systems for neutron detection
4. Addition of instruments in the radiation detection laboratory including CZT detectors
