This webinar will provide an introduction to continuous spectroscopy systems and the role they can play in the nuclear industry. These powerful systems automate the collection and analysis of spectroscopic data. They are designed to run continuously and unattended providing a steady stream of valuable data to a site. We will discuss the components of a complete system and how these systems differ from traditional spectroscopy systems. We will then show example systems, and discuss how they are used to streamline activities, increase safety and reduce costs.

Do you need to be more certain that your instrumentation is ready for the next round of sample analyses? Lab-PulseTM is an innovative new concept designed to use modern data acquisition and analysis technologies to keep your counting laboratories running. With the capability to monitor both new and legacy instrumentation, as well as the lab environment, the days of enhanced instrument state-of-health monitoring and predictive maintenance for both the simple and complex laboratory have arrived. Now, issues can be found and corrected BEFORE they start to affect your analysis results! This webinar will review the concepts, products, and services offered under the Lab-Pulse umbrella, with ample time for attendee questions.

In 2018, the Mirion Health Physics Division released the newest SPIR-Ace – a sleek and modern handheld radionuclide identification device (RID). This device uses gamma detection via a NaI or LaBr3 crystal to alarm, locate, and identify gamma radiation. The instrument's user interface includes modern swipe features, radiation mapping and reach-back capability.
Now, Mirion’s Spectroscopy Division has added compatibility with Genie™ 2000 and ISOCS™ to bring full nuclide quantification to the mix using the GenieXport™ application. Operators can acquire a spectrum, select a geometry, and export the data in a few clicks for complete quantification with Genie 2000.
In this webinar, we will present an overview of the SPIR-Ace. We will demonstrate some of the key functionality, such as source location and rapid nuclide identification. Special focus will be provided on how to obtain nuclide activities with the SPIR-Ace RID and GenieXport application.

A nuts and bolts look at the inner workings of the mysterious gamma spectroscopy signal chain. In this webinar we will take a ground level approach to understanding how this system works. We will start with how the detector detects events and take you through the plotting of the little dots on your display. Armed with this knowledge, we will then be able to dive into identifying and correcting some of those pesky issues that can affect a lab’s ability to produce quality results, which are both reliable and reproducible.

In this presentation, we will focus on techniques to reduce the background in your gamma spectroscopy system. Reducing the background allows one to achieve lower MDA’s or reduce the measurement time to reach the desired MDA. Both options enhance the value of your spectroscopy system by making more sensitive measurements or increasing your overall sample throughput. We will focus on germanium-based gamma-spectroscopy systems, but the techniques described in this presentation also apply to other detector systems.

This one hour webinar will start with a live, on camera overview of the new hardware stressing the ease of maintenance. We will then move on to show the APEX-Alpha/Beta™ software interface as it has been updated for the new Series 6LB. We will also show that many routine tasks can be accessed directly from the Series 6LB without the need to use the attached PC.

This 1-hour webinar provided a general introduction to LabSOCS and ISOCS, focusing on the use of standard LabSOCS geometry templates and the Genie 2000 Geometry Composer application. Several common laboratory sample geometries will be selected as practical examples to demonstrate the LabSOCS modeling and mathematical efficiency calibration process.
