The book is based on a laboratory course in nuclear physics given
to advanced students. It treats the experimental techniques and
instrumentationmost often used in nuclear and particle physics
experiments as well as in various other experimental sciences. It
provides most useful results and formulae, technical know-how and
informative details on -interactionof radiation in matter; - radion
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); - various systems and techniques for experiments.
Thanks to the author's long teaching experience the material is
presented in a verypractical, hands-on way making the book a useful
text and lab companion for students and experienced scientists.
