Helium-3 Crisis
|
Worldwide demand for radiation detectors has experienced explosive growth since the September 11th terrorist attacks. As a result, Helium-3 which is the primary component utilized in the most widely installed detectors has been rapidly depleted and there are no feasible methods for producing more of this rare isotope. This severe imbalance in supply and demand has triggered an urgent worldwide effort by governments and scientists to find an alternative radiation monitoring technology that does not require Helium-3
