A quick setup with room-temperature detectors allows users to begin nuclear spectroscopy right away. The CeBr3 detector shown in this video represents the latest room-temperature (does not require cooling) detector to offer excellent peak resolution, large volume crystals and linear response through a wide energy range. Also, there is no contamination peak to be compensated for (contamination peaks such as Lanthanum create some post processing requirements).

CeBr3 Important Technical Specifications
* Density 5.2g/cc
* Max Emission: 380nm
* Decay: 12-20ns
* Size: Custom to 76mm dia, 102mm length

The MCA used in this video is a standard tube-base MCA with a 13 PIN connection to the detector. The MCA includes spectroscopy software and is powered over USB.
