9780792301882: Nuclear Methods of Dating: 5

Sinossi

Describes all the methods of dating terrestrial events using direct or indirect measurements of natural nuclear disintegrations. The work doesn't treat the matter of isotopic geochemistry in general, but rather concentrates on a more complete and practical guide to dating methods. The first chapter collates general data and principles common to all methods. The following chapters present the possibilities and limitations of the different dating methods, along with the relevant analytical techniques and the preferred range of application. Includes two glossaries, isotope tables, a scale of geological times, and a chapter on radioactivity. Annotation copyright Book News, Inc. Portland, Or.
