Hello,
My name is Tom and I am an amateur at gamma spectroscopy. I started this hobby a few years back and now it is one of my favorite hobbies. I am a programmer in the states, professionally, but I spend all of my free time on science hobbies. Current hobbies include:
Gamma spectroscopy
Astrophysics (using particle detectors)
Astronomy (telescopes)
Geology (mostly hunting uranium lol)
writing (working on my books)
D&D lol
Currently, I using a Gamma Spectacular GS1100A and a Spectrum Techniques UCS30 MCA with either a 38.1mm NaI(Tl), a 15mm CsI(Tl), or a 25.4mm NaI(Tl). I also use a Polimaster 1703GNB with a 4 cm^3 CsI(Tl) and a small 6-LiI(Eu) Neutron detector.
I leave my larger UCS30 in my home lab and bring my GS1100A and Polimaster into the field.
I'm always available for an email.

Re: Antiprotons
Thanks Tom. As you can possibly imagine, I get items from many sources. The biggest problem I have is getting listed even a small part of what I have available. I don't know where all the time goes... Cheers, Tom
