Development of a Data Aquisition System at a Nuclear Microprobe with Applications in the Geo- and Biosciences
This thesis is divided in two parts, one that deals with the development of the new data acquisition system at Lund Nuclear Microprobe, and a second part that deals with different applications. A CAMAC based data acquisition system has been installed at the Lund Nuclear Microprobe facility. The syst...
