{ "item_title" : "Advanced Ionization Chambers for Radiation Detection", "item_author" : [" Scott Kiff "], "item_description" : "Radiation detection technology has international attention for its importance in solving issues such as nuclear proliferation, homeland security, and study-ing physics from the grand scale of the cosmos to the diminutive world of subatomic particles. The last decade has produced myriad exciting develop-ments in materials, designs, and data processing. This book examines performance enhancements in ionization chambers for radiation detection applications, suggesting advanced designs to provide new capabilities. High-pressure xenon ionization chambers are the focus of this work, although the techniques discussed are applicable to a broad range of radiation detectors. A new electrode design is proposed, and the reader is walked through an optimization study, position-sensing methodology, and detailed techniques to understand performance limitations and potential im-provements. This book will be of interest to expert scientists and engineers as a pre-sentation of novel techniques, but the content is also valuable as a step-by-step guide for newcomers to the field of radiation detection interested in learning how to design, optimize, and characterize detectors.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers3.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/3/83/646/301/3836463016_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "85.32", "online_price" : "85.32", "our_price" : "85.32", "club_price" : "85.32", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
