RadiationHelper is a data analysis tool for : 1. gross alpha and beta radiation measurement and detector calibration using experimental data (counts acquired by alpha-beta devices). 2. gamma spectroscopy measurements and detector calibration using experimental data (spectra acquired by acquisition software such as Assayer, Gamma Vision, Maestro) 3. gross alpha,beta, gamma detector efficiencies and gamma peak efficiency can be theoretical computed using Monte-Carlo simulation technique for radiation transport (based on EGSnrc toolkit) 4.dose assessment in human body exposed to radiations from nuclides in several common scenarios such as air exposure, water submersion, ground surface, internal ingestion or inhalation. 5. quick dosimetry and shielding computations. ...

...Experienced users have a number of more advanced options such as background subtraction, adjustments for nonlinearities in detector response, and graph smoothing. FABS was designed with students in mind, as a way to help high schoolers and undergraduates learn about spectroscopy without paying for expensive equipment and software. Accompanying this software is a hardware design, which can be used as a bare-bones spectrometer that will provide quantitative absorption and fluorescence emission spectra at an extremely low cost. It uses only materials that many people can find around their home.

Radiation detection and measurement education is necessary for a wide variety of people working with radiation. The equipment and laboratory setup needed for delivering this education are expensive and difficult to assemble due to the large variety of the type of experiments that are desirable to cover. For a basic education one needs to have gamma, beta, alpha and neutron sources, at least one detector to detect each type of radiation and other supplemental instrumentation to perform...
