This thoroughly updated and expanded edition features two new chapters on statistics for health physics and on environmental radioactivity, particularly concerning radon and radon daughters. Fresh material includes: a derivation of the stopping-power formula for heavy charged particles in the impulse approximation, a detailed discussion of beta-particle track structure and penetration in matter, an extensive description of the various interaction coefficients for photons, several new worked examples and additional end-of-chapter problems.
JAMES E. TURNER is Distinguished Research Staff Member and Leader of the Analytic Dosimetry and Surface Physics Group of the Health Sciences Research Division of the Oak Ridge National Laboratory. Widely published in the areas of radiation physics and dosimetry and the chemical toxicity of metal ions, Dr. Turner is the author of three textbooks on radiation physics and health physics, including Problems and Solutions in Radiation Protection.
