Gilbert Gedeon. Radiation Detectors for Industrial Facility Systems

Ny, continuing Education and Development, Inc., 1992, — 79 P.This professional engineering Ceu course "Radiation Detectors" is based on the Department of Energy Publication Doe-hdbk-1013/2-92, "Instrumentation and Control". This course provides a basic understanding of instrumentation and control necessary for safe operation and maintenance of energy facilities and their support systems. In particular, this course describes the principles of radiation detection, detector operation, circuit operation, and specific radiation detector applications. The course is applicable to industrial and nuclear engineers, construction and design personnel, technical staff and facility operators who are interested in gaining a better understanding of radiation detectorsRadiation detection terminology
