3-D imaging of particle tracks in solid state nuclear track detectors [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010
It has been suggested that 3 to 5% of total lung cancer deaths in the UK may be associated with elevated radon concentration. Radon gas levels can be assessed using CR-39 plastic detectors which are often assessed by 2-D image analysis of surface images.

New Projections for Dark Matter Searches with Paleo-Detectors

open access: yesInstruments, 2021
Paleo-detectors are a proposed experimental technique to search for dark matter (DM). In lieu of the conventional approach of operating a tonne-scale real-time detector to search for DM-induced nuclear recoils, paleo-detectors take advantage of small ...
