Alpha Spectrometer αmber-12
Description
Alpha Spectrometer is designed to transform alpha-particle energies into electrical signals, their amplification, filtration, and transformation into spectral lines and their acquisition for spectral analysis with determination of the intensities of spectral lines. Bench top alpha spectrometer α12 contains 12 measurement chambers, which allows for simultaneous analysis of up to 12 samples. Every Alpha spectrometer chamber includes alpha particle detector, pressure sensor and preamplifier of signals from alpha detector.
