Radioisotope Applications Engineering (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781258228934)

Radioisotope Applications Engineering is a comprehensive guide to the engineering applications of radioisotopes. Written by Jerome Kohl, a renowned expert in the field, this book covers the fundamental principles and practical applications of radioisotopes in a variety of industries, including medicine, agriculture, and environmental science.The book begins with an introduction to radioisotopes, their properties, and their uses in engineering applications. It then delves into the various techniques used to produce and measure radioisotopes, as well as the safety precautions that must be taken when working with these materials.The remainder of the book is dedicated to exploring the many applications of radioisotopes in engineering. Topics covered include radiography, nuclear gauges, radiation therapy, and nuclear power generation. Each chapter includes detailed explanations of the underlying principles and practical examples of how radioisotopes are used in real-world applications.Throughout the book, Kohl emphasizes the importance of proper handling and disposal of radioisotopes to ensure the safety of workers and the environment. He also discusses the regulatory framework governing the use of radioisotopes and the role of engineering in ensuring compliance with these regulations.With its clear explanations, practical examples, and emphasis on safety and regulatory compliance, Radioisotope Applications Engineering is an invaluable resource for engineers, scientists, and students working in the field of radioisotope engineering.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
