This listing is for ten precut blocks of Bicron BC408 Scintillator Plastic.
This material is a Premium Plastic Scintillator Material, tested and guaranteed to work for your
Cosmic Ray Muon Detector project.
No other items shown or mentioned are included.
Please don’t forget to check my other listings, as I carry many different diameters and lengths
that fit right on popular sized PMTs often used in scintillation detectors or available for purchase separately. I also custom cut and polish to request, please inquire if you have needs for a custom size or finish.
These are virgin "water cooled cut and polished" scintillator blocks. I never use or recommend heat polishing of a scintillator.
Cutting and polishing of scintillator plastic can be difficult and costly without proper know-how and equipment. Unless you’re going to build dozens of detectors, buying precut
scintillators
from me is much cheaper (and easier) than trying to cut, shape and polish it yourself.
Your plastic scintillator comes complete with instructions for use (The CosmicWatch Muon Detector project instructions can be found on-line by doing a search).
I have tons of other radiation detection related equipment listed, so please check out my

Attention school teachers, professors, and students. These are excellent for
Science Fair
and physics projects, experiments and term or research papers. Scintillator detectors are fun and easy to build for all age groups from high school through college and university. Great experience and fun for the electronic hobbyist as well.
