Riassunto

The book is based on a laboratory course in nuclear physicsgiven to advanced students. It treats the experimentaltechniques and instrumentationmost often used in nuclearand particle physics experiments as well as in various otherexperimental sciences. It provides most useful results andformulae, technical know-how and informative details on-interactionof radiation in matter; - radion protection andradioactive sources; - statistics for the interpretation andanalysis of data; - principles and operation of the maintypes of detectors (ionization, scintillation andsemiconductor detectors); - nuclear electronicsinstrumentation (NIM, CAMAC); - various systems andtechniques for experiments.Thanks to the author's long teaching experience thematerial is presented in a verypractical, hands-on waymaking the book a useful text and lab companion for studentsand experienced scientists.
