This comprehensive volume is indispensable to engineers and scientists working in dosimetry to protect the health and safety of radiation workers and the general public. Ranging from basic theory to advance concepts, this complete reference covers the physics of radiation, the biological effects of radiation, and the technology of radiation sensing and measurement. It provides a useful guide to commercially available dosimetry equipment and explains their applications. Surveying current and cutting-edge methods and materials used to detect radiation and record dosages, the book also explores novel approaches for designing new low-cost radiation sensors and furthering dosimetry research.cPublisher abstract. 0aRadiationxMeasurement 0aRadiation dosimetry 0aGamma rays1 aArshak, Khalil1 aKorostynska, Olga403Download: Knoveluhttps://app.knovel.com/hotlink/toc/id:kpAMTRD001/advanced-materials-techniques/advanced-materials-techniques  a.b12219538bmngc cn  a251209  b0c190207deeh  fng0  c2006d2006
