Detector 05
Detector 05 : Protection Devices and Measures. A device used to convert the energy of incident radiation into another form (such as light, an electrical signal, or a trace in a chemical emulsion) in order to observe or measure radiation. A particle detector is any device used to sense the passage of atomic or subatomic particles or to measure their properties. For many particle detectors, this involves observing and measuring the radiation (electromagnetic or ionizing) released as particles interact with a gaseous, liquid, or solid medium or an electromagnetic field. The term also may refer to a collection of particle detection DOE-HDBK-1188-2006 A-13 devices designed so that each serves a particular purpose in allowing physicists to reconstruct particle events
