Handbook of Radioactivity Analysis 2 Radioanalytical Applications

Handbook of Radioactivity Analysis: Radiation Physics and Detectors, Volume Two, Fourth Edition is an authoritative reference on the principles, practical techniques and procedures for the accurate measurement of radioactivity - everything from the very low levels encountered in the environment, to higher levels measured in radioisotope research, clinical laboratories, biological sciences, radionuclide standardization, nuclear medicine, nuclear power, and fuel cycle facilities, and in the implementation of nuclear forensic analysis and nuclear safeguards. It includes sample preparation techniques for all types of matrices found in the environment, including soil, water, air, plant matter and animal tissue, and surface swipes. Users will find the latest advances in the applications of radioactivity analysis across various fields, including environmental monitoring, radiochemical standardization, high-resolution beta imaging, automated radiochemical separation, nuclear forensics, and more. Spans two volumes, Radiation Physics and Detectors and Radioanalytical ApplicationsIncludes new chapters on the analysis of environmental radionuclidesProvides the latest advances in high-resolution beta imaging techniques, analytical techniques in nuclear forensics and nuclear safeguardsProvides an extensive table of the radiation characteristics of most radionuclides of interest for the radioanalytical chemist INDICE: 1.
