Technology receives industry recognition
The monitor is designed to rapidly identify and measure radioactive materials in air at nuclear facilities and other locations. It uses an unfolding technique to estimate the energy distribution of alpha particles and identify radioactive materials without precise analysis at specialized facilities, Business Wire reported.
The Japanese release states that the technology improved the detection limit by more than 100 times compared with conventional methods and reduced measurement time to one-sixth or less. The award ceremony is scheduled for November 20, 2026, in Scottsdale, Arizona, according to Mitsubishi Electric’s PR TIMES release.
