Olivine belongs to the olivin-groupe whose end-members are calcio-olivine and tephroite. Forsterite is a magnesium silicate; fayalite an iron silicate. If commonly is spoken of olivine, it is usually a more or less iron-rich forsterite. The color of olivine is generally yellowish green, olive green to black. You will find much more interesting details in our portrait about this common mineral series. Written and investigated by Peter Seroka. (Article in german) |

Das Zählrohr besteht in der Regel aus einem beidseitig abgeschlossenen Rohrstück, welches entweder aus einem elektrisch leitenden Material (Metall), oder aus elektrisch isolierendem Material (z.B. Glas), das jedoch innen elektrisch leitend beschichtet sein muss, hergestellt ist. In seinem Inneren befindet sich von der elektrisch leitfähigen Außenwand isoliert ein dünner Zähldraht. Dabei stellt der besagte Zähldraht die Anode, das Zählrohrgehäuse die Kathode dar. Befüllt ist der Zwischenraum mit einem Zählgas, welches das eigentliche Detektorvolumen (für Korpuskelstrahlung) darstellt. Weiterhin unterscheidet man mehrere Bautypen von ... |
