This microprocessor-based instrument simulates the functionality of a Geiger Counter without using actual radioactive sources, making it completely safe for educational use. Designed for physics and mathematics applications, it provides a hands-on approach to studying radiation concepts without the risks associated with real radioactive materials.

Demonstration of Half-Life & Randomness

The unit displays the counts of particles leaving an imaginary radioactive 'source' while also showing the number of remaining particles within the 'source.' This allows for a clear demonstration of the concept of half-life and the random nature of radioactive decay. By observing the fluctuating particle counts, students can gain a deeper understanding of probability and statistical variation in scientific data.

Integration Into Mathematics & Statistics

Beyond physics, this unit is also a valuable tool for mathematics education, particularly in the study of random numbers and statistical analysis. The random particle counting mechanism provides a practical demonstration of probability distributions, helping students grasp statistical principles interactively and engagingly.

Power & Connectivity

The instrument operates on a 240V/12V AC Plug Pak, ensuring reliable power for continuous demonstrations. The clear digital display enhances usability by providing real-time readings, making it easy to monitor particle counts and analyse results.

Product Features

  • Safe Radiation Simulation: Provides an interactive learning experience without using actual radioactive sources, ensuring a risk-free environment.
  • Half-Life Demonstration: Clearly illustrates radioactive decay concepts by displaying particle counts leaving and remaining in the source.
  • Random Number Generation: Supports statistical studies by showcasing randomness in particle counting, useful for probability lessons.
  • Microprocessor-Based Design: Delivers precise measurements and real-time display of data for enhanced accuracy.
  • Versatile Educational Application: Suitable for physics and mathematics classrooms, aiding in the teaching of radiation and statistical concepts.
  • Reliable Power Supply: Operates on a 240V/12V AC Plug Pak, ensuring continuous functionality during experiments.
