For this dot-point of Part 5 of the syllabus, how many instruments should we have knowledge of? I was thinking of being prepared to write about Geiger-Muller counter, photographic film, cloud chamber and scintillation counter for my trial on Friday...but I'm not sure if I should be prepared to write about more instruments...or (hopefully) less. I'd love to just be able to write about Geiger-Muller and Photographic film.

Anybody have much of an idea?
