[G03-P04] Simultaneous Observation of Radiation by Fog Box and Scintillation Detector

The announcement describes a development project of a combined fog box and scintillation detector for use in radiation exploratory activities by high school students. The project is being carried out by students from two high schools and has been verified through an experiment which showed that it is possible to separate cosmic-ray muon and beta radiation based on the wave height information. The goal is to develop a new observation device that automatically saves and analyzes the radiation trajectory data.
