Experiments in Nuclear Science
ORTEC supports academic teaching laboratories within a wide range of disciplines; Nuclear Engineering and Technology, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, and Radiopharmacy.
With a broad range of NIM instrumentation, ORTEC offers modules specific to pulse-processing applications associated with Charged Particle and Gamma-Ray spectroscopy, modules for pulse counting and fast timing, as well as modules and digital electronics for generalized multichannel analysis. This modularity can provide a cost-effective and a re-configurable approach to the instrumentation of teaching experiments.
ORTEC also provides a selection of pre-scripted teaching laboratory experiments for use in nuclear science undergraduate laboratories. These experiments are based on the AN34 Laboratory Manual and are located on the Experiments tab.
ORTEC’s objective is to partner with teaching facilities in universities and other educational institutions to add to and further develop these pre-scripted experiments.
If you have developed teaching experiments employing ORTEC products, we would welcome the opportunity to include them on this site for others to use. We are happy to acknolwedge the institution for the contribution of the experimental script, and to provide a link to the contributor's departmental web site.
The experiments listed here include the experiments from the AN34 Laboratory Manual. Additional experiments will be added as they become available.
It is important that the references (located under the "Library" tab) be included with these experiments.
Please contact the factory if you need assistance, or need to purchase the latest equipment available for any specific experiment.

25 Updated Nuclear Experiments
Now Available on ORTEC Educational Web Page for Universities and Educational Institutions. . . NOW IT's YOUR TURN!!
|
In June of 2010, ORTEC created an educational web page specifically for universities and teaching laboratories. Since that time we have added updated versions of 25 scripted teaching experiments, originally published in |
|
Application Note 34 - "Experiments in Nuclear Science"
|
|
These experiments are FREE to all universities and can be found at:http://www.ortec-online.com/Solutions/educational.aspx
In June 2012 we added experiment 25, bringing this series to a close. Since we started this campaign we have received a number of thank-you emails which attest to the usefulness of this endeavour, and we would like to add more experiments to the site.
We ask that you submit your experimental scripts to us for publication on our Education web page. Any experiments that we publish will entitle the sender to a choice of FREE instrument from the following list:
