his book is based on a laboratory course in nuclear physics given to advanced students. It treats the experimental techniques and instrumentation most often used in nuclear and particle physics experiments as well as in various other experiments. It provides useful results and formulae, technical know-how and informative details on the interaction of radiation in matter, radiation protection and radioactive sources, statistics for the interpretation and analysis of data, principles and operation of the main types of detectors (ionization, scintillation and semiconductor detectors), nuclear electronics instrumentation (NIM, CAMAC), and other experimental equipment and techniques. This second edition has been revised; sections on Cherenkov radiation and radiation protection have been updated and extended. Thanks to the author`s long teaching experience, the material is presented in a very practical, hands-on way making the book a useful text and laboratory companion for students and experienced scientists alike.ISBN - 9788184894332
