Eichholz G Principles of Nuclear Radiation Detection 2018 torrent

Textbook in PDF format

This book is intended for senior undergraduate and beginning graduate students in physics, nuclear engineering, health physics and nuclear medicine, and for specialized training courses for radiation protection personnel and environmental safety engineers. To keep the size of the book manageable, material has been selected to stress those detectors that are in widespread use. Attempts have also been made to emphasize alternatives available in approaching various measurement problems and to present the criteria by which a choice among these alternatives may be made. Limited bibliographies are provided to encourage further reading and numerical problems to develop a feeling for the orders of magnitude of various system parameters. The SI system of units has been adopted as far as practical, though the curie and the roentgen have been retained where it seemed appropriate to reflect current usage
