In 1902 Ernest Rutherford and Frederick Soddy discovered that radioactive elements, such as uranium and thorium, broke down into other elements in a predictable sequence or series. This amazing ...

By measuring the ratio of lead to uranium in a rock sample, its age can be determined. Using this technique, called radiometric dating, scientists are able to "see" back in time.

Radiometric or gamma level/density instruments are most often used in applications where other measuring techniques fail due to extreme temperatures or pressures, toxic media, complex geometries of ...
