The Absorber Set for Radiation is specifically designed for studying the absorption properties of various materials when exposed to radioactive emissions.

It is ideal for educational settings and laboratory experiments exploring the behaviour of Alpha, Beta, and Gamma radiation through different media.

Composition of the Absorber Plates

The set contains 24 absorber plates, including tissue paper and thin foils to block Alpha particles, progressively thicker aluminium foils and plates for Beta radiation, and solid lead plates to absorb Gamma radiation. Additionally, the set includes three plastic plates to provide support when using thick lead absorbers with compatible shielding equipment.

Active Surface Area

Each lead absorber features an active area of 60 x 60mm, while the aluminium and tissue absorbers offer an active area of 50 x 56mm. These standardised sizes support accurate and consistent measurements during experimentation.

Holder & Reproducibility

To ensure consistent experimental conditions, the set includes a holder with a robust spring-loaded plunger and base. This holder is designed to securely position both the absorber and the radioactive source, maintaining their relative positions across repeated trials for enhanced reproducibility.

Storage & Organisation

All components are stored in a durable cardboard container with individual slots for each absorber. This packaging solution not only protects the materials but also simplifies organisation and accessibility for efficient use in educational environments.

Product Features

  • Comprehensive Plate Range: Enables targeted study of Alpha, Beta, and Gamma radiation absorption across varied materials.
  • Standardised Active Areas: Ensures accurate comparisons between different absorber materials during experiments.
  • Spring-Loaded Holder: Maintains consistent positioning of source and absorber for reproducible results.
  • Plastic Support Plates: Stabilises thick lead absorbers when used with radiation shielding devices.
  • Organised Storage: Includes robust container with custom slots for each component, enhancing longevity and usability.
