far away where the ski growswhere the clouds border farwhere trees are colored ripeand love is never shywhere smiles mean trueand cries are from heartwhere stars are always brightthough the moon is not onetrade is passion, material dieswhere earth holds you tightalong its mountain a motherly touchwithin its oceans the warmth of sunsmell of roses lilies and shrubsthe valley of kindness forgiveness and love
The radiation interacts with the crystals. That causes photoelectric effect. photons (gammas) are absorbed, electrons are emitted (it's in the name). The electrons are then trapped in the crystals. When you heat it up, you free the trapped electrons. You measure the amount of electrons freed at the same time you heat it up. That's directly proportional to the amount of photons that were absorbed. It's also directly proportional to the amount of gamma exposure the person wearing the detector received.
you are never allowed to park in front of a fire hydrant and yes they have a right to tow your car.
