Annotation -
The course is devoted to radioanalytical methods and their application in the trace determination of radioactive and stable elements. Basic nuclear reactions, properties of ionizing radiation, the methods of detection and measurement of ionizing and nonionizing radiation will be described. The lectures then continue with analytical applications and methods. Field measurements carried out in situ are emphasized.
