Hi folks!
Got my hands on some NaI(Tl) scintillation detectors to use over the summer, mostly plug and play.
Its one 2x2" and two 1x1" and now I need some nice ideas to try out. I have measured on a few sources I have and everything seems to be in order but a calibration with some well known energies need to be performed before I do any serious measurements.

Anyone got any good ideas on what I should do with these beauties over the summer are welcome to share with me :-)
Shield one and measure downwards in my cellar or perhaps try to make a portable backpack system, but then I need a system that can sync the data with an GPS, not easy!!
