Business News Agency February 9th The Ohio State University’s School of Engineering has recently developed a new type of radiation monitoring and detection instrument that can more accurately detect the level of radioactive contamination in the nuclear environment. At the same time, its cost will be lower than the previous product, and it has excellent detection speed.

At present, this new type of radiation spectrometer has been patented and the first batch of products will be available soon. New technology also brings new business to Avicenna Equipment. The Ohio-based company will rely on research technology from Ohio State University to produce related parts. Relevant researchers said that this radiation spectrometer will eventually be promoted globally, and relevant industries around the world can use this new technology. David Hubert, a professor of radiation protection at Ohio State University, said that the new spectrometer will be more efficient than previous detectors. It can detect and quantify gamma rays and beta radiation simultaneously. In order to detect both rays at the same time, there must be two different detection instruments and other chemical tests, which is a rather time consuming process.

The Ohio State University School of Engineering has signed a contract with Ludlum Equipment Corporation of Texas to produce the first batch of equipment. The Ohio State University Technology Transfer Office also hopes to obtain a license for commercial development purposes. In addition, the spectrometer's electronic system will be produced by Avicenna.
