<p>A direct reading, self-powered detector and dosimeter for gamma rays, and other low LET radiation, and optionally microwaves, is described. The detector comprises droplets of a very high vapour pressure detector liquid uniformly dispersed in an elastic solid, the droplets having a sufficiently high degree of superheat for their vaporization to be sensitive to lightly ionizing radiation such as gamma rays and even to microwave radiation.</p> |
