      I was going to mention this. Despite it just being a camera on a cart being run through a several-rooms-sized machine it felt like a clip from an internet horror series. The beam causing genuine distortion to the picture after turning the last corner in the hallway cemented that. Now just put a halloween decoration or creepy mannequin in the beam chamber, film another run, and upload it to a new channel with no context or information and you'd have an internet mystery for years I'm sure haha.

    Notice how brilliantly the package tape holding down the tripod fluoresces under the beam and also the two rings of white LED strips above and below the camera too. Also note the huge chunk of calcite still phosphorescing bright orange when the guy takes it off the tray at the end. It seems to be warm to the touch and the glow surprises that blue hat guy when it's put in the shade of that other guy's coat.

    That with 3/8” shielding all the way around and 5/8” directly in the beam path the sensor was *that* affected is quite impressive and honestly a little scary. It’s good that irradiators are very well interlocked and labrynthed off. Also quite impressive that that beam is generated rather than being a source that’s exposed

      Linear accelerators have been in use for cancer treatment for a long time, due to the fact the beam is switchable: no more radiation needed or a lower dosage, different pattern on the pattern window, all doable, and in the case of a linear accelerator much easier than with an isotope of whatever sort.
      (Not that isotopes have ceased to be used for cancer treatment at all, but they have started falling out of favor more and more).
      With a linear accelerator you only need a stupidly powerful stepup-conversion circuit room filled with step up transformers and other equipment to get to such a high voltage you can start to bombard particular metals on a plate with them to produce the desired radiation (it's sort of how X-ray machines work, just with a different type and wavelength of exposure, and typically with a lower amount of power).
      A hospital in my country that has specialized in cancer treatment mentioned that they favor the linear accelerator over isotopes because the hospital is right in the middle of a neighbourhood and sees military style lockdowns upon transportation of a new source into the hospital: the lobby has to be completely evacuated, streets get cordoned off and staff is evacuated from the floor that will eventually use the new source, and that's leaving out the transportation of said material to the hospital.
      I would not be surprised that due to the slightly more crude nature of a beam irradiation device the power generation required for it is ehm, a little less shielded and you are actually hearing the mains hum of all the step up transformers.
      My brother once applied for a job at the hospital I mentioned earlier for maintaining a linear accelerator, and said this about the power generation room: "Yeeea...it's good you can't see that when you are on the table, that alone would freak you out big time."
      Something he later extended to the part about the device covers: "You do not want to see the insulators the conductors are resting on...it's good that the thing has covers, it would make you feel incredibly uncomfortable otherwise").

    • @weeardguy
      @weeardguy 2 года назад +21

      Though this particular thing probably needs a rather massive power supply compared to the ones used on the average medical linear accelerator, I doubt it's very big. I was also quite stunned to see how small the 1,6 MV or so supply was on the accelerator at a hospital I got to see as part of a job interview once. Insulation, semiconductors and especially a lot of oil (that also cools everything) keep it remarkably small.
      I do remember the warning signs: I expected the general (and a bit stupid in such machines) 'Caution High Voltage' signs, but nope: multiple covers of the machine itself had it stated a 'bit different': LETHAL CURRENTS AND VOLTAGES INSIDE! DISCHARGE POWER SUPPLY FIRST AND TAKE MEASUREMENTS BEFORE REMOVING THIS COVER! DO NOT WORK ALONE!
      And then the technician who explained a few things about the machine just casually pointed his finger towards multiple components and even laid his hand on top of the cover when I leaned back a little in awe of what he did: 'Don't worry, it's safe. It needs to be safe. Just don't touch the glass of the wave guide, even though it should be safe to touch, we have found out by experience it can hold a nasty charge right after testing, haha!'
      The cameras inside the room where the patient would be for treatment, were overloaded with dead and hot pixels, most of them with an eerie blue or purple color, unlike anything I'd seen before. As the machine was rotating, you could just see that more radiation was hitting the sensor as the head was facing the ceiling.
      It was also a really weird feeling to start such a beast of a machine with just the press of a button on an RS232-interface...
      The only thing that really stuck with me was the feeling 'My god... I hope I never have to lie under such a thing...'

    This is amazing to watch! You can see at about 1:00 the initial stray electrons starting to hit the GoPro's image sensor and overloading some of the sensor's pixels, looking much like analog video noise/snow. Looks almost like a analog satellite TV "rain fade" or other gradual loss of signal. :) You can also see the streaks of electrons when you pause the video, basically the image sensor is acting as a solid-state cloud chamber, I'd reckon. And that blue ionized air!
    And the coup de grace at 1:26--total overload! The image sensor is totally incapacitated by the extreme onslaught of electrons, albeit attenuated and a temporary incapacitation, thanks to the leaded pig for shielding. Unlike the fate of the dosimeter (eV meter?) outside the GoPro & pig that looks it has it's last gasp at 1:25! :)
