Report No. 058 - A Handbook of Radioactivity Measurements Procedures, 2nd edition (1985) Price: $90 PDF (AAPM Members FREE) Category: Reports This Report addresses the measurement of radioactivity in general, but specifically it deals with the vast number of different radioactive materials that have become available in the last three decades, from nuclear reactors and particle accelerators, for applications in medicine, scientific research, and industry. It also addresses low-level radioactivity measurements for the monitoring of radioactivity in environmental media, such as air and water, in connection with the control of radioactive effluents associated with the production of nuclear power or the use of radionuclides. Scientific Committee: Wilfrid B. Mann, Chairman (deceased) Twenty two expert members and consultants. |
