NUCLEAR RADIATION DETECTORS. Review Report No. 5
The book discusses several types of detectors, including ionization detectors, scintillation counters, Cherenkov counters, semiconductor devices, and crystalline detectors. Other types of detectors which are not discussed because of limited application include Wilson and bubble chambers. photographic emulsions, and chemical dosimeters. The principles of operation and proper use of the detectors are presented. The latest trends in the development of detectors are covered through the year 1961. The state of the production of detectors is treated and includes such factors as ability to mass produce, cost of production, and availability of basic materials. A list of 536 references is grouped according to detector type. (TTT)
