{"product_id":"advanced-ionization-chambers-for-radiation-scott-kiff-9783836463010","title":"Advanced Ionization Chambers for Radiation Detection","description":"Radiation detection technology has international attention for its importance in solving issues such as nuclear proliferation, homeland security, and study-ing physics from the grand scale of the cosmos to the diminutive world of subatomic particles. The last decade has produced myriad exciting develop-ments in materials, designs, and data processing. This book examines performance enhancements in ionization chambers for radiation detection applications, suggesting advanced designs to provide new capabilities. High-pressure xenon ionization chambers are the focus of this work, although the techniques discussed are applicable to a broad range of radiation detectors. A new electrode design is proposed, and the reader is walked through an optimization study, position-sensing methodology, and detailed techniques to understand performance limitations and potential im-provements. This book will be of interest to expert scientists and engineers as a pre-sentation of novel techniques, but the content is also valuable as a step-by-step guide for newcomers to the field of radiation detection interested in learning how to design, optimize, and characterize detectors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Scott Kiff\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 3836463016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9783836463010\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e VDM Verlag Dr. Mueller E.K.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/15\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 184\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.56lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.39d","brand":"Scott Kiff","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47305556852991,"sku":"9783836463010","price":85.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_6540b7f6-5a82-4d70-8532-8166a8faadd4.jpg?v=1758831212","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/advanced-ionization-chambers-for-radiation-scott-kiff-9783836463010","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
