The respected, beautiful and very classical Museum of Natural History in Vienna is setting up the new stand for on-line visualization of natural radiation. The dinosaurs, meteorites, 29000-year-old Venus, and dozens of other objects are displayed in one of the most beautiful buildings...

The MiniPIX TPX3 based ultra/compact gamma camera introduced in the previous article by Dr. Jan Jakubek was tested with several different gamma emitting isotopes. Here we show the result of one experiment with three sources: Iodine I-131 (gamma line at 364 keV),Sodium Na-22 (annihilation gamma...

The traditional XRD method uses a monochromatic X-ray beam with energy insensitive detectors resulting in large and slow apparatus. The spectral sensitivity of every pixel in AdvaPIX TPX3 camera with high-resolution Timepix3 chip enables polychromatic X-ray beam to be used for...

The effort of several last months resulted in our new small family member MiniPIX TPX3. It is a palmtop size photon-counting radiation imager or particle tracker. For each ionizing particle (e.g X-ray photon) it digitally registers its position, energy, time of arrival, and track shape – basically...

The miniaturized MiniPIX TPX3 radiation imaging detector is designed with a maximal emphasis on versatility. Several of these devices can be combined into a larger multi-detector system either next to each other (to cover larger are or wider solid angle) or in layers on top of each other. This...

The miniature particle tracking and imaging detectors of ADVACAM such as MiniPIX can record very small levels of radioactivity which is present everywhere: In the air, you breathe, in the water you drink, in the food, you eat and, yes, even in your own body. NASA uses 7 of these units on board...

The smallest and lightest gamma camera is based on a single MiniPIX TPX3 device equipped with a 2 mm thick CdTe sensor. It makes images of the distribution of gamma sources in an environment with a very broad observation angle (in fact in all directions – even backward). Except for the image,...

The MiniPIX detector of ADVACAM visualizes individual particles of ionizing radiation. It can be nicely used for radiation monitoring with the identification of radiation types. We have performed simple experiments showing the temporal change of radiation intensity and composition in a normal...

Hawkeye Spectral Imaging supplies the ADVACAM technology developed by CERN and used in space by NASA affordable for students! It brings modern nuclear technology of radiation imaging detectors to the classrooms and lets students discover the invisible world of ionizing radiation surrounding us. Laws...

The popular MiniPIX TPX3 device developed by ADVACAM can be integrated into the systems of our partners. The fancy metallic box of standard MiniPIX TPX3 is not needed in such cases. The new MiniPIX TPX3 flex module has been developed for such a purpose. These modules are very compact and easy...
