Principles of Radiation Interactions Lecture Notes

This note is intended to provide a broad understanding of how different types of radiation deposit energy, including the creation and behavior of secondary radiations; of how radiation affects cells and why the different types of radiation have very different biological effects. Also explains the effects of radiation on biological systems including DNA damage, in vitro cell survival models and in vivo mammalian systems.

Radiation Effects in Materials

Radiation Effects in Materials

The study of radiation effects has developed as a major field of materials science from the beginning, approximately 70 years ago. Its rapid development has been driven by two strong influences. The properties of the crystal defects and the materials containing them may then be studied. The book is distributed in four sections: Ionic Materials; Biomaterials; Polymeric Materials and Metallic Materials.
