A straightforward presentation of the broad concepts underlying radiological physics and radiation dosimetry for the graduate-level student. The book covers photon and neutron attenuation, radiation and charged particle equilibrium, interactions of photons and charged particles with matter, radiotherapy dosimetry, as well as photographic, calorimetric, chemical, and thermoluminescence dosimetry. Also included are many new derivations, such as Kramers X-ray spectrum, as well as topics that have not been thoroughly analyzed ...

A straightforward presentation of the broad concepts underlying radiological physics and radiation dosimetry for the graduate-level student. The book covers photon and neutron attenuation, radiation and charged particle equilibrium, interactions of photons and charged particles with matter, radiotherapy dosimetry, as well as photographic, calorimetric, chemical, and thermoluminescence dosimetry. Also included are many new derivations, such as Kramers X-ray spectrum, as well as topics that have not been thoroughly analyzed in other texts, such as broad-beam attenuation and geometrics, and the reciprocity theorem. Subjects are laid out in a logical sequence, making the topics easier for students to follow. In addition, the book is supplemented with numerous diagrams and tables.
