Research
The group is active in many research fields that require the measurement of ionizing radiation.
Currently, the research and developement is ongoing in the follwing fields:
- advanced dosimetry for the quality assurande of radiation therapy
- novel probes for nuclear waste investigation
- handheld dosimeter especially for pulsed radiation fields
- compact probes to be applied in concrete samples in the decommissioning of nuclear power plants.
In each of these fields we continously offer Bachelor and Master theses. In case you are interested, do not hesitate to contact us.
