Detectors cover the measurement of energies from the very low to the highest of energies observed in cosmic rays. Describing the instrumentation for experiments in high energy physics and astroparticle physics, this edition describes track detectors, calorimeters, particle identification, neutrino detectors, momentum measurement, electronics, and data analysis. It also discusses applications of these detectors in other fields such as nuclear medicine, radiation protection and environmental science. Problem sets have been added to each chapter and additional instructive material has been provided, making this an excellent reference for graduate students and researchers in particle physics. 410 0$aCambridge monographs on particle physics, nuclear physics and cosmology ;$v26. 606 $aNuclear counters 615 0$aNuclear counters. 676 $a539.77 700 $aGrupen$b Claus$0150507 702 $aShwartz$b Boris A. 702 $aSpieler$b Helmuth 702 $aEidelman$b S$g(Simon), 702 $aStroh$b Tilo 801 0$bStDuBDS 801 1$bStDuBDS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910734332603321 996 $aParticle detectors$9257097 997 $aUNINA
