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. 4aSpectroscopy 4aEnvironmental Chemistry 4aNuclear & High Energy Physics00aNuclear physics; gamma radiation; gamma-ray detection; spectroscopist; environmental monitoring; radiation assay; atmospheric interaction; nuclear reactors; high energy experiments; digital pulse processing systems; semiconductor1 aJoss, David4aut08iPrinted edition:z978111989608140uhttps://doi.org/10.1002/9781394286577aWiley Online Library40uhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/action/showBook?doi=10.1002%2F9781394286577aWiley Online Library423Cover Imageuhttps://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/cms/asset/0c80e700-c793-43fb-99c0-687a82603dec/9781394286577.cover.gifaWiley Online Library
