About Geiger Counter
Geiger counter, also known as Geiger-Müller counter, is a type of radiation detection and measurement device, which was invented by Hans Geiger and Walther Müller in 1928. It is a type of gas-filled detector that detects alpha, beta, and gamma ionizing radiations. It consists of a Geiger-Müller tube filled with inert gases such as helium, neon, or argon at low pressure, a counting device, and a visual and audio readout. The term Geiger counter applies to those instruments using a Geiger-Müller detector.
Technavio’s analysts forecast the global Geiger counter market to grow at a CAGR of 6.03% during the period 2017-2021.
