The textbook begins with exercises related to radioactive sources
and decay schemes. The problems covered include series decay and
how to determine the frequency and energy of emitted particles in
disintegrations. The next chapter deals with the interaction of
ionizing radiation, including the treatment of photons and charged
particles. The main focus is on applications based on the knowledge
of interaction, to be used in subsequent work and courses. The
textbook then examines detectors and measurements, including both
counting statistics and properties of pulse detectors. The chapter
that follows is dedicated to dosimetry, which is a major subject in
medical radiation physics. It covers theoretical applications, such
as different equilibrium situations and cavity theories, as well as
experimental dosimetry, including ionization chambers and solid
state and liquid dosimeters. A shorter chapter deals with
radiobiology, where different cell survival models are considered.
The last chapter concerns radiation protection and health physics.
Both radioecology and radiation shielding calculations are covered.
The textbook includes tables to simplify the solutions of the
exercises, but the reader is mainly referred to important websites
for importing necessary data.
