This text provides hands-on experiments in nuclear radiations and discusses their interactions with matter, detection and measurement, and applications in the physical and life sciences.
The first Nulcear Safety Review, covering the years 1980-1082, was submitted to the IAEA Board of Governors for consideration at its June 1982 session. Conceived after the Three Mile Island accident as a means of reporting on worldwide efforts to strengthen nuclear safety, this annual review has since varied in format and content. (Jml)

A new format has been adopted for the Nuclear Safety Review 1995 to present the major safety developments of the past year. The focus on the report has been shifted to feature a number of prominent relevant issues and to concentrate on their implications for radiation and nuclear safety. The Review includes in-depth discussions of steam generator integrity, control rod drive nozzle cracking, fi…
