Res: if successful this research could provide a new type of detector that would have application to numerous radiation measuring needs where the energy and position information are required. Two examples would be for landfill and sewage monitoring if successful, this research could provide a new type of detector that would have application to numerous radiation measuring needs where the energy and position information are required.
