The PS-3238 wireless Geiger counter counts β, γ, and α radiation particles entering its internal Geiger–Müller tube. Audible beeps indicate detected ionizing radiation. Students can experimentally observe the Geiger characteristics of the tube. Overview: The PASCO wireless Geiger counter counts β (beta), γ (gamma), and α (alpha) radiation particles entering its internal Geiger–Müller detector tube. Easy mounting provides excellent position control for inverse-square-law experiments, and audible beeps indicate ionizing radiation. The front plastic probe fits conveniently into the NU-3344 sample holder, sold separately. Students can wirelessly control the high voltage supplied to the internal Geiger–Müller tube, measuring counts per time interval at different tube voltages. Plotting counts per time interval against tube voltage lets them experimentally observe the tube's Geiger plateau.
