The Moment a GoPro Camera Meets an Electron Beam Irradiator
  • 9 years ago
PhD student Andrew was keen to see “the inside of an industrial irradiator that uses a particle accelerator to irradiate samples with a high energy electron beam”. As radiation levels present where the beam hits the samples are so high it would be lethal for a person to directly observe the process, a radiation-shielded GoPro camera was sent through the irradiator instead. Witness how the radiation powerfully affects the camera and footage. Credit: YouTube/Andrew Seltzman
