gammascoututil's Introduction

gammascoututil

This is an ancient project of mine, gammascoututil. It's a tool to read out Gamma Scout Geiger counters via USB and record their radation measurements.

It's kind of abandoned by me. I wanted however to preserve the history and also push some code that has made it through testing, but was never ever released. The last official release is v0.04, but the release candidate that came after (0.05alpha9) is probably also fine. There has been some more development afterwards of which I'm entirely unsure if the code even works. So if you're looking for something reliable, choose one of the older tags.

Most notably, 0.05 adds support for the Gamma Scout Online and some conversion curves from counts/sec to µSv/hr.

gammascoututil's Issues

Converting CPM to uSv/h

Hello,

I know that this project is just a throw-me-up and abandoned, but I've been scouring Google for days for an answer.

Just wondering where you got the data from for converting CPM to uSv/hr in https://github.com/johndoe31415/gammascoututil/blob/master/DosisConversion.py#L26 ?

I'm currently trying to analyze some data from my GammaScout, and when converting the pulse counts to microseiverts I always get results that are slightly off.

For example, If I use the LND712 conversion factor to calculate uSv/h as such (663 pulses taken over an hour):
(663 / 60) / (0.005940 * (663 / 60) + 122.5) = 0.090155775064425
Or if I use the table from your file:
(663 / 60) / (-0.01931769722814499 * (663 / 60) + 122.5) = 0.090361539790837

But when using the GammaScout Toolbox software and exporting the data manually from there, it gives me a different result of: 0.076111 uSv/h

The first 2 results are not that different from each other, as they are only off by about ~0.0002uSv/h, but the result from the GammaScout Toolbox software is off by almost ~0.025uSv/h!

I was wondering if you have any insight into which I should use, and if it's going to be an issue (say I taken readings over the course of days with pulse counts in the 1000s)?
