Atomic Radiation Detection and Measurement is a comprehensive book written by Harold S. Renne. This book covers the fundamental principles and techniques of detecting and measuring atomic radiation. The book is divided into two parts. The first part covers the basic principles of atomic radiation, including its sources, properties, and interactions with matter. The second part covers the various methods and instruments used to detect and measure atomic radiation, including gas-filled detectors, scintillation detectors, solid-state detectors, and nuclear spectroscopy. The book also discusses the applications of atomic radiation detection and measurement, including radiation protection, medical imaging, and nuclear power. This book is an essential resource for students, researchers, and professionals in the fields of nuclear physics, radiation protection, and medical imaging.Additional Editor Is Fred McKinney, Jr.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
