The human race is in a dilemma; it is threatened by economic instability on one hand and climate change on the other. Either of these could lead to widespread unrest and political turmoil, if the right choices are not made now. In particular, prosperity without carbon emission implies a comprehensive switch in our sources of energy. With luck, the activity generated by the process of switching …
This book discusses the fundamentals of ionizing radiation dosimetry. Published in 2017 with new and comprehensive content. The topic of discussion is divided into nineteen chapters such as sources of ionizing radiation, charged and uncharged the particle interactions with matter, overview of radiation detectors and measurements, primary radiation standards, ionozation chambers, chemical doseme…
Food Scientists the world over should keep abreast of advances in konwledge and techniques in this developing new food process. The place to start is with these three volumes, which are, without question, the most comprehensive and the most authoritative source fo information on the basic science and technology yet published on food preservation by the application of ionizing radiation.
This book discusses advanced radiation protection dosimetry. Published by CRC Press which consists of 10 chapters. This reference book can be used by scientists and practitioners in the field of radiation protection. In addition, for students of health physics and medical physics. Some subjects such as the fundamental concepts of radiation protection, bioknetic models, dosimetric models, dose c…
This Safety Guide, co-sponsored by the ILO, provides general guidance on the establishment of an effective radiation protection programme for occupational exposure, appropriate for the sources of radiation likely to be encountered in a range of industries, medical institutions, educational and research establishments and nuclear fuel cycle facilities. It further provides the necessary guidance …
This report deals with radon and thoron and their decay products in workplaces other than mines. It is intended for use in the application of radiation protection principles in those workplaces where employers may not have an extensive background in radiation protection. It provides practical information on action levels for workplaces, on monitoring techniques and on actions aimed at reducing …
Science continues to grow. One of them is related to food preservation by ionizing radiation. This book is volume three dealing with ionizing radiation. The topic of discussion is divided into 8 chapters such as radurization and radicidation, radappertization of meat, poultry, finfish, shelfish. Then about sprout inhibition in tubers and bulbs (MM).
This book discusses the handling of radiation accidents. Written by a person with long experience in the field. The topic of discussion is divided into 7 chapters such as basic radiological science, exposure and contamination, radiation injury and detection, recognizing radioactive material, treatment (MM).
Every day humans will be faced with radiation, both artificial radiation and natural radiation. the use of nuclear reactors, the use of mobile phones, nuclear weapons and so on, there is always a potential risk that is harmful to the environment and humans. Therefore, it is necessary to take mitigation measures related to nuclear radiation accidents. This book is about that. The discussion topi…
