Over the decade that has passed since the publication of the 3rd
edition, technical developments continue to enhance the instruments
and techniques available for the detection and spectroscopy of
ionizing radiation. The Fourth Edition of this invaluable resource
incorporates the latest developments and cutting-edge technologies
to make this the most up-to-date guide to the field available:
? Covers many new materials that are emerging as scintillators
that can achieve energy resolution that is better by a factor of
two compared with traditional materials
? Presents new material on ROC curves, micropattern gas
detectors, new sensors for scintillation light, thick film
semiconductors, and digital techniques in detector pulse
processing
? Includes updated discussions on TLDs, neutron detectors,
cryogenic spectrometers, radiation backgrounds, and the VME
instrumentation standard
