Instrumentation for Undergraduate Nuclear Physics

该项目的目标是为学生提供现代化的经验， 核物理仪器和计算设备。 的 设备以高分辨率伽马射线探测器和IBM计算机为核心 一个数学协处理器。 支持设备包括一个 从计算机生成硬拷贝输出，以及电子 这些模块用于对来自探测器的信号进行整形、放大和分析。 其他辅助设备包括放射源， 使用所需的设备进行研究。 这些设备将用于指导学生就业， 教师或工程师或打算在物理学方面继续深造， 化学、地质学或工程学。 具体而言，该设备将 用于改进核试验仪器和方法的教学 物理学 该大学将与同等数额的资金相匹配的奖项。

The goal of this project is to offer students experience with modern instrumentation and computing equipment for nuclear physics. The equipment centers on high resolution gamma ray dector and IBM computer with a math co-processor. Supporting equipment includes a plotter to produce hard copy output from the computer, as well as electronic modules to shape, amplify, and analyze the signals from the detector. Other supporting equipment includes radioactive sources which will be studied with the equipment requested. The equipment will be used to instruct students bound for employment as teachers or engineers or bound for further education in physics, chemistry, geology or engineering. Specifically this equipment will be used to improve teaching of the instrumentation and methods of nuclear physics. The University will match the award with an equal amount of funds.
