    Abstract: The disclosed method is applicable for use in conjunction with an earth borehole drilling apparatus that typically includes: a drilling rig; and a drill string operating from said drilling rig for drilling an earth borehole, the drill string including a bottom hole arrangement comprising a drill bit and a downhole resistivity measuring subsystem for measuring downhole formation resistivity near the bit by propagating electromagnetic energy into earth formations near the bit, receiving electromagnetic energy that has propagated through the formations and producing measurement signals that depend on the received signals. A method is set forth for directing the drilling of a well bore with respect to a geological bed boundary in the earth formations, including the steps of: producing from the measurement signals a recording of downhole formation resistivity as a function of position; determining the presence of a horn in the resistivity recording; and implementing a change in the drilling direction of the drill bit in response to said determination of the presence of a horn.

    Abstract: A gamma-ray detector comprising: a housing having a window through which gamma rays can enter; the housing comprising; a two-dimensional array of electrically conducting carbon nanotubes, which act as a cathode, on a substrate; a metal plate electrode, which acts as an anode, positioned opposite the substrate so that there is a gap containing a gas between the electrode and the nanotubes; and a voltage source connected to the substrate and the electrode such that when in use the voltage between the substrate and the electrode is maintained below the arc-threshold voltage so that no electric current can flow through the gap between the nanotubes and the electrode; wherein the electrode and the substrate are arranged such that when a gamma ray enters the housing and hits one of the nanotubes a spark discharge is triggered between the nanotubes and the plate electrode creating an electrical current that can be measured.

    Abstract: Apparatus is disclosed for determining the resistivity of formations surrounding an earth borehole. An electrically conductive metal body, such as a drill collar on a drill string, is movable through the borehole. A transmitting toroidal coil antenna is disposed on the body and is energized to induce a current which travels in a path that includes the body and the formations. An electrode is disposed on the body, and an electrical signal resulting from said current is measured at the electrode to obtain an indication of the resistivity of the formations. In a disclosed embodiment, one or more electrodes can be mounted on a blade that is mechanically coupled to the body.
