  • Abstract
    Radiations from exploding atoms are counted at the rate of 100,000 each second by a radiation detector developed by the Westinghouse Research Laboratories. The new detector is said to be 50 times more effective than the standard Geiger counter whose limit is about 2,000 radiations per second.
