D. Glossary FLIR Detection
3
He Detector
A device to detect thermal
Ú
Neutrons (
Ú
Neutron Detection ) consisting of a tube illed with
3
He and other gases under high pressure in a strong electric ield. Incident neutrons react
with the helium yielding an electrical charge in the gas which can be detected similar as in a
Ú
Geiger–Müller Tube .
HPGe
High-Purity
Ú
Germanium .
HPRDS
Human Portable Radiation Detection System

Intrinsic Activity
The inner
Ú
Activity of a radiation instrument, without contribution from the environment
or other sources.
Ion
A
Ú
Nucleus whose number of
Ú
Electrons differs from the number of
Ú
Protons resulting in a
net negative or positive electric charge.
Ionizing Radiation
Ú
Particle Radiation or
Ú
Electromagnetic Radiation energetic enough to detach
Ú
Electrons
from atoms or molecules, thus converting them to
Ú
Ions .
