Known for its comprehensive coverage and up-to-date literature citations, this classic text provides students and instructors with the most complete coverage available of radiation detection and measurement. 
Over the decade that has passed since the publication of the 3rd edition, technical developments continue to enhance the instruments and techniques available for the detection and spectroscopy of ionizing radiation. The Fourth Edition of this invaluable resource incorporates the latest developments and cutting-edge technologies to make this the most up-to-date guide to the field available: ? Covers many new materials that are emerging as scintillators that can achieve energy resolution that is better by a factor of two compared with traditional materials ? Presents new material on ROC curves, micropattern gas detectors, new sensors for scintillation light, thick film semiconductors, and digital techniques in detector pulse processing ? Includes updated discussions on TLDs, neutron detectors, cryogenic spectrometers, radiation backgrounds, and the VME instrumentation standard

A Classic Text on Radiation Detection and Measurement Now Updated and Expanded Building on the proven success of this widely-used text, the Third Edition will provide you with a clear understanding of the methods and instrumentation used in the detection and measurement of ionizing radiation. It provides in-depth coverage of the basic principles of radiation detection as well as illustrating their application in a full set of modern instruments. In addition to a complete description of well-established detection and spectroscopic methods, many recently developed approaches are also explored. These include extensive new discussions of semiconductor detectors with unique properties, recently developed scintillation materials and photomultiplier tubes, and several gas-filled detectors of new design. Many other updates and additions have been made throughout the text and two appendices have been added. Over 100 new figures and tables have been included. Key Features of the Third Edition * Every chapter has been updated with extensive addition of new references to relevant articles in the scientific literature. * A number of new detection techniques have been added, strengthening the status of the text as the most comprehensive coverage of the topic to be found in any single book. * The writing style has maintained the readability that has attracted favorable response from readers and reviewers of the earlier editions. * The author uses his extensive research experience in radiation measurements, nuclear instrumentation, and radiation imaging to provide you with an invaluable resource.

Technology

Wiley, John Sons

A new edition of the most comprehensive text/reference available on the methods and instrumentation used in the detection of ionizing radiation. Updated to reflect advances since the first edition came out in 1979. Retains the general organization of the first edition--all topics of importance are covered in sufficient detail to lead the reader from basic principles to examples of modern applications. Covers modern engineering practice; provides useful design information; and contains an up-to-date and thorough review of the literature.

Radiation Detection and Measurement, 2nd Edition

Radiation Detection and Measurement, Fifth Edition,provides authoritative information on the instruments and techniques used for the detection and spectroscopy of ionizing radiation originating in atomic or nuclear processes. The most comprehensive textbook available on the subject, this classic volume contains detailed yet student-friendly coverage of radiation sources and interactions, counting statistics and error prediction, Geiger-Mueller Counters, ionization chambers, gamma ray detectors, and more. The fifth edition contains new and revised material throughout, including up-to-date coverage of current scientific literature and leading-edge detection and measurement technologies. The text clearly explains the principles of operation and basic characteristics of a wide range of detector systems, including organic and inorganic scintillators, photomultiplier tubes, high-pressure xenon spectrometers, and lithium-drifted silicon detectors. Also available in enhanced eBook format, this leading textbook is ideal for first courses in nuclear instrumentation or radiation measurements, and a valuable review and reference guide for scientists and engineers actively involved in radiation measurements.
