Message: News >Chemistry professor joins radiation dectector project: In response to a call by the Department of Homeland Security for proposals for radiation detectors, Brad Jones, professor of chemistry, is working to develop the first handheld field instrument that can be used to detect and identify radioactive particles at the site of potential contamination. The device, called the “Tungsten Coil Atomic Emission Spectrometer,” can be used to quickly test water, dust, soil, etc. in the case of a terrorist attack such as a “dirty bomb,” or a Radioactive Dispersion Device. http://www.oldgoldandblack.com
