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.Publisher abstract.Artech House sensors library.RadiationMeasurementRadiation dosimetryGamma raysRadiationMeasurement.Radiation dosimetry.Gamma rays.539.7/7Arshak Khalil1569014Korostynska Olga1112598CaBNVSLCaBNVSLCaBNVSLBOOK9910784149103321Advanced materials and techniques for radiation dosimetry3841578UNINA
