Description

The technical feature of hardware and utilizing method of the high performance cloud chamber using a Peltier device are reported. Using this device, observation of not only alpha-rays tracks, but also beta-rays tracks, and furthermore, photoelectron tracks arisen from gamma rays or X-rays can be performed. Accordingly, this device provides intuitively radiological education of the difference in interaction with materials from a kind of radiation-rays. (author)
