Liquid nitrogen is used as a cooling agent in various spectroscopic techniques to improve sensitivity and resolution. Spectroscopy, the study of the interaction between matter and electromagnetic radiation, has evolved significantly since its inception in the 17th century. The warm laboratory dewar, funnel, and detector may cause the liquid nitrogen to boil rapidly and spatter. Always wear. Since HPGe detectors produce the highest resolution commonly available today, they are used to measure radiation in a variety of applications, including personnel and environmental monitoring for radioactive contamination, medical applications, radiometric assay, nuclear security, and nuclear plant. Liquid nitrogen (LN2) is nitrogen in a liquid state at low temperature. It has a boiling point of about −196 °C (−321 °F; 77 K).
