Abstract: Radiation safety is important to the health of workers in nuclear energy facilities and various accelerator facilities. This report introduces the applications to several fields of radiation detection technology studied in the Radiation Application and Detection Laboratory (RadL) of the Harbin Engineering University. Such fields cover dose monitoring, radiation field reconstruction, radioactive source location and nuclear material assessment, covering scenarios such as nuclear reactors operation, nuclear facility decommissioning, environmental radiation monitoring, radioactive material transport, radiotherapy, and non-destructive inspection. In particular, recent results of the team regard a diamond dosimeter used in hazard environment such as BNCT facilities [1,2], neutron imaging detectors based on nMCP and nGEM [3], fissile material mass measurement methods [4], and other neutron and gamma detection methods [5,6].
