Identifying the Presence of Natural Radionuclides in Ashlar Samples
Civil and Environmental Engineering, 2021 Humans have always been exposed to different types of natural and cosmic radiation. At present we experience 83 % natural radiation, for example from granite marbles, building materials such as concrete, brick, granite, or drywall.

Development of a real-time mobile gamma-ray measurement system for shipboard use
Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023 Large areas must be rapidly screened to monitor radiation in marine environments. For this purpose, this study developed a mobile real-time gamma-ray measurement system for shipboard use and evaluated its performance.

Discovery of Radioactivity [PDF]
Nature, 1948 I AM surprised that Prof. Becquerel should have read into a passing reference to his distinguished father‘s work, in my review of Prof. Gamow‘s book, any suggestion that the discovery of radioactivity was in any way "fortuitous". No such suggestion was intended.

Efficiency calibration of a well-type HPGe detector using experimental and Monte Carlo simulation techniques [PDF]
Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2020 Well-type high-purity germanium detectors are well suited for the analysis of small samples, as they combine high detection efficiency with low background radiation. The well geometry however makes efficiency calibration more difficult than that
