Editorial Reviews

Review
'Compiled by two highly experienced researchers... Advanced training is not necessary in understanding the material... Excellent collection of references for each of the 15 chapters.'

Product Description
This handbook is intended for engineers and designers of tools and scientific equipment intended for operation in environments where radiation is present, for example in uranium mines or in outer space, or at the site of nuclear weapons testing, radiation therapy, or industrial sterilization processes involving radioactive energy sources. The Handbook of Radiation Effects lucidly covers radiation physics and its impact on solid-state physics structures and electronics, with explanations that are accessible to readers without advanced scientific training. The book should serve as a valuable reference tool and introduction to the plentiful, if often baffling, treatises on radiation effects for engineers and students interested in practical applications.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must reference/text book for everyone in Space Radiation., January 28, 1998
By A Customer
This text details nearly everything one need to know for a basic understanding of radiation effects on electronic components and systems. Lots of very useful tables and graphs that are needed nearly daily by the radiation experts as well as the beginners in the field. Andy & Len have done a great job putting all this information in a very understandable format. A must reference/test for everyone in the Space Radiation business. Dr. Michael K. Gauthier, ICS RADIATION TECHNOLOGIES, INC.
