  • Patent number: 9335427
    Abstract: An electrical system for an atomic particle detection assembly includes an electrical component electrically connected to an atomic particle detection unit. The electrical system includes a dielectric insulating material surrounding the electrical component. The electrical system also includes a conductive shielding material surrounding the dielectric insulating material. The conductive shielding material and a conductive element are at substantially the same electric potential.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 8569711
    Abstract: An arrangement for detecting energy particle impingement includes a support frame and a multi-tube detector pack. Each pack includes multiple detector tubes. Each tube contains at least one sensitive material. Each tube is elongate along a respective axis. The tubes extend parallel with the respective axes being co-planar. Each pack includes mounting tabs located at each axial end. The tabs provide support for the tubes within the pack. At least one of the tabs has at least one securing portion and at least one adjusting portion. Each pack includes at least one operable securing member extending from the respective securing portion to the frame. Operation of the securing member secures the pack to the support frame. Each pack includes at least one operable adjusting member extending from the respective adjusting portion to the frame. Operation of the adjusting member changes an orientation of the pack.
