    Abstract: An on-axis, angled, rotator device is disclosed. The rotator device may include a container containing a slot for receiving a sample. An angle of the slot may be configured to be between 0 and 180 degrees relative to a perpendicular irradiation plane of a radiation device. The rotator device may include a cup positioned within an opening of the container. Additionally, the rotator device may include a driveshaft configured to transmit torque to cause the cup to be rotated when the cup is positioned within the opening. When the sample resides within the slot and the driveshaft transmits the torque to the cup, the cup may cause the sample to rotate about a center axis of the sample. The angle of the slot containing the sample and the rotation of the sample about the center axis may facilitate uniform radiation exposure to the sample when the radiation device emits radiation.

    Abstract: An apparatus for providing in-situ radiation measurements within a density equivalent package is disclosed. The apparatus may include a radiation detector embedded within the density equivalent package that is configured to measure an amount of exposure of a phantom material of the density equivalent package to radiation emitted by an irradiation device. The phantom material may have density equivalence with an object or substance for which radiation exposure information is sought and the phantom material may serve as a substitute for the object or substance. A signal including the measurement of the amount of exposure of the phantom material to the radiation may be provided to a processor of the apparatus for processing. The processor may process the signal to interpret and provide additional information relating to the measurement and may provide the information to a device communicatively linked to the apparatus.

    Abstract: An irradiation apparatus with a limited swivel rotator includes a drive ring and at least one mount affixed thereto. The drive ring has a defined drive axis of rotation being configured to rotate about a source container, like an X-ray tube. The mounts are affixed to the drive ring. Each of the mounts is configured to mount a material holder to the drive ring for rotating the material holder about the source container. The limited swivel rotator is in communication with each of the mounts and is configured to maintain a radial planetary position of the mounts and the material holders mounted thereto to maintain an initial horizontal orientation of the mounts and the material holders mounted thereto on the drive ring as the mounts and the material holders mounted thereto are moved around the source container by the drive ring.
