The cutting-edge new edition of the classic introduction to radioactive measurement Gammy-Ray Spectrometry is a key technique in the study of radioactive decay. It measures the rate and extent of radioactivity from a variety of sources, both natural and artificial, including cosmic ray sources, nuclear reactors, high-energy physics experiments, and more. The resulting data can be essential to environmental monitoring and to a range of experimental sciences. For years, Practical Gamma-Ray Spectrometry has served as the classic introduction to this area for current or aspiring practitioners. A…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
The cutting-edge new edition of the classic introduction to radioactive measurement Gammy-Ray Spectrometry is a key technique in the study of radioactive decay. It measures the rate and extent of radioactivity from a variety of sources, both natural and artificial, including cosmic ray sources, nuclear reactors, high-energy physics experiments, and more. The resulting data can be essential to environmental monitoring and to a range of experimental sciences. For years, Practical Gamma-Ray Spectrometry has served as the classic introduction to this area for current or aspiring practitioners. A comprehensive but accessible treatment of the subject, with a thorough discussion of all major classes of detectors and their associated electronic systems, it contains everything a researcher needs to make optimal gamma-ray measurements. Now fully updated to reflect the latest technology and experimental data, it is a must-own for researchers looking to incorporate gamma-ray spectrometry into their scientific practice. Readers of the third edition of Practical Gamma-Ray Spectrometry will also find: * Fault-finding guide for rapid and effective problem resolution * Workshop-style approach emphasizing the fundamentals of laboratory practice * New sections dealing with novel developments in nuclear structure research, measuring effects of pollution and climate change, new semiconductor detectors, and more Practical Gamma-Ray Spectrometry is ideal for PhD students and practicing gamma-ray spectroscopists, including researchers working on radiation, energy and environmental monitoring professionals, and researchers working in physics, archaeometry, and related subjects.

Autorenporträt
Gordon Gilmore, PhD, worked at the Universities Research Reactor (owned by Manchester and Liverpool Universities and now decommissioned) using gamma spectrometry, originally as an adjunct to chemical analysis, at a time when detectors and instrumentation were being developed from their relatively primitive beginnings to their modern sophisticated forms. That 25 years of experience, along with the late John Hemingway, led to the publication of the first edition of this work, with the intention of sharing a deep understanding of gamma spectrometry with the expanding population of gamma spectrometrists within universities and many establishments where radioactivity is used or studied. After his retirement from the University, as a director of Nuclear Training Services Ltd., he was called upon to lecture, develop methods and advise on setting up gamma spectrometry facilities. He is an Honorary Professor at the University of Liverpool. David Joss, PhD, is Professor of Physics at the University of Liverpool, UK, where he teaches undergraduate and postgraduate courses in nuclear physics. His research focuses on understanding the structure of the atomic nucleus using gamma-ray spectroscopy with large spectrometer arrays. He has published over 200 research articles from his research. He is a Fellow in the Institute of Physics and a Fellow of the Higher Education Academy.
