  • Abstract
    Devices for remote mapping of radioactive contamination developed at RECOM Ltd., the daughter institution of Kurchatov Institute, since 1986 are described and typical examples of their application are shown. The following devices are discussed: Spectrum-sensitive collimated devices for mapping of radioactivity on contaminated surfaces – scanning collimated Gamma Locator and device for field 137Cs contamination mapping – CORAD; devices for gamma-ray imaging – computer-controlled High-Energy Radiation Visualizer (HERV) and Coded Mask Imager.
