A Transistorized Nuclear Instrumentation System for Nuclear Research

A brief description of the transistorized modular nuclear instrumentation developed for use at Yale is presented in this paper. The salient advantages of this system including greatly reduced space and power requirements, increased reliability, flexibility and convenience of use through a library of circuit elements and finally, ease of assembly of complex systems and of servicing are stressed. Emphasis is also placed on the importance of very close liaison between the instrument design and development engineer and the scientific users of the instrumentation.
