This audio recording, titled "Radioactive Detection with a Geiger Counter," is a highly detailed and authentic sound effect representation of the operation of a Geiger counter, a device used to detect and measure ionizing radiation. The audio begins with the crisp clicking sound of the Geiger counter being switched on. This is followed by a period of calm as the device stabilizes, preparing to sense any potential radiation.
