Sharon, Maheshwar.
Nuclear chemistry / by Maheshwar Sharon, Madhuri Sharon. - Boca Raton, FL : CRC, 2009. - xiv, 230 p. : ill. ; 25 cm.
Includes bibliographical references (p. [224]-226) and index.
Radioactivity -- Nuclear reaction -- Interaction of radiation with matter -- Ionization Counters -- Scintillation Counter -- Non-conventional detection techniques -- Sample preparation for counting -- Factors affecting counting efficiency -- Identification of radioactive isotopes -- Statistics of counting -- Health hazards and production -- Radiochemical separation techniques -- Hot atom-nuclear reaction -- Problems -- References -- Index.
"Concentrating on techniques for the detection and measurement of radioactivity, this book offers a guide to selecting the type of counter, type of source sample, duration for which the counting must be made, and the radiation emitted by the isotope for its efficient detection. It introduces a novel concept to explain not only the decay processes but also the selection of counting procedures for detecting and measuring radioactivity. The author builds up the foundation from the nature of the interaction of radiation with matter. He also highlights the differences between an ordinary chemical laboratory and a radiochemical one."--Provided by publisher.
