Abstract
Simple circuits for detecting x rays by means of a thin (36 mg/sq cm) aluminum-wall organic-quenched cylindrical Geiger-Mueller counter are described. The first presents visible and audio output representing the detector counting rate. The second incorporates a count-rate meter circuit. A manually switched and an electronic oscillator high-voltage supply are described. A simple circuit and procedure for count-rate calibration of the metered circuit are given. All circuits are readily constructed from commonly available components. (Author)
