Cylinders of a plastic material with a high carbon 12 content are introduced. The carbon 12 under the effect of previous exposure to high energy radiation can be converted into the radioactive isotope carbon 11 which gives off gamma rays. In the detector the cylinder acts as a scintillator revealing its own radiation. This is observed by a photomultiplier tube and recorded on punched tape. Thick walls shield against background radiation. 1970 http://cds.cern.ch/record/764476 http://cds.cern.ch/record/764476 Album with images scanned from original photo negatives Physics for health: equipment for generating and testing ozone Industry and Technology Denise David 1970 http://cds.cern.ch/record/764474 http://cds.cern.ch/record/764474 Album with images scanned from original photo negatives Health physics: development cables Industry and Technology 1969 http://cds.cern.ch/record/764140 http://cds.cern.ch/record/764140 Album with images scanned from original photo negatives Health physics ionisation chambers; PS ionising beam scanner (IBS) Industry and Technology 1968 http://cds.cern.ch/record/764038 http://cds.cern.ch/record/764038 Album with images scanned from original photo negatives 1968 http://cds.cern.ch/record/763881 http://cds.cern.ch/record/763881 Health physics: studies of irradiated broad beans Daily measurement studies were carried out at CERN over 10 days to investigate the effect of radiation on the growth of the primary root of <i>Vicia faba prolifica</i> longpod (by appointment to the HRH Queen Elizabeth II, specially brought over from the UK). Studies examined many different dosages and types of beam, including 400 GeV. Many other studies were done using <i>Vicia faba</i> roots, for instance by looking at genetic damage caused by micronuclei induction, chromosomal aberrations, etc. These roots were a good system for studying a wide range of dosages in a reproducible way. 1967 http://cds.cern.ch/record/763776 http://cds.cern.ch/record/763776 Album with images scanned from original photo negatives Physics for health: measurements laboratory 1963-03-12 http://cds.cern.ch/record/762942 http://cds.cern.ch/record/762942 Album with images scanned from original photo negatives CERN PhotoLab No caption CERN-PHOTO-6411240 Rasmus Christian Raffnsøe, radiation surveyor in PS, at his desk, handing out dosimeters to those who had to work in the PS ring area. 1964 http://cds.cern.ch/record/1777323 http://cds.cern.ch/record/1777323 Image scanned from original photo negative on 04 Nov 2014 Routine blood testing Safety  1968 http://cds.cern.ch/record/763907 http://cds.cern.ch/record/763907 Album with images scanned from original photo negatives Health physics service working with mice An experiment invesitgating the relative biological efficiency on rats of secondary radiation by 592 MeV protons from the SC was carried out by G.
