English term or phrase: scintillator
Definition from European Nuclear Society:
Substance in which flashes of light are generated by impinging ionizing radiation (fluorescence). Nal(Tl)-monocrystals are particularly suitable for the detection of gamma radiation and anthracene or diphenyl oxazole dissolved in toluene is suitable for beta radiation. ZnS(Ag) is a favourable scintillator for detection of alpha radiation.

Example sentence(s):
  • Gadolinium silicate doped with cerium is a "fast" crystal and can be used as a protection scintillator. Its possible applications include computer tomography, spatial resolution of less than 1 mm. Marketech International
  • YAG (Yttrium Aluminum Garnet) single crystal scintillators are chosen by many scanning electron microscopists because they have a very fast response time of 50 - 60ns and (unlike plastic or most phosphor scintillators) they do not degrade when bombarded by electrons or ions. Canemco & Marivac
  • Plastic scintillators are prepared by bulk polymerization in aluminium (size up to 3.5 m) or glass cast and by pressure molding technique. Amcrys-H

سنٹیلیٹر


Definition from own experience or research:
یہ ایک ایسی سائنسی اصطلاح ہے جس کے اندر مادہ کی بہت زیادہ خصوصیات سمائی ہوئی ہیں۔ اور اس کے مقابلے میں اردو زبان میں کوئی بھی اصطلاح رائج نہیں ہے۔ جس کی بناء پر میرا یہ خیال ہے کہ، اس کا ترجمہ کرنے کی بجائے اس کو اس طرح سے ہی یعنی اردو میں لکھنا چائیے۔

Example sentence(s):
  • سینٹیلیٹر ایک ایسا مادہ ہے جس کو جب ریڈیشن سے آئیونائز کیا جاتا ہے تو اس سے روشنی کا اخراج ہوتا ہے۔ - Wikipedia
