Description: This text describes basic atomic and nuclear structure, the physical processes that result in the emission of ionizing radiation, and external and internal radiation protection criteria, standards and practices from the standpoint of their underlying physical and biological basis. Both radioactive sources and machines that produce radiation are examined. Properties of the various kinds of ionizing radiation - charged particles, photons, and neutrons - and their interactions with matter are discussed in detail. The underlying physical principles of radiation detection and systems for radiation dosimetry are presented. This book will be carefully wrapped in heavy paper, then bubble wrap, then be fitted snugly with a waterproof wrapper inside a heavy-duty cardboard box to protect it during shipment. I am not a book warehouse! I am a book lover who takes the utmost care in shipping your books. Please see my feedback comments to verify this claim for yourself.
