This book covers the major points of basic theory and experimental methods of nuclear physics, emphasizing the behavior of real systems. Using many examples, it also illustrates the extraordinary possibilities offered by nuclear methods. The book covers the Mossbauer effect, slow neutron physics, radiography, nuclear geochronology, and various othe > The application of nuclear physics methods is now widespread throughout physics, chemistry, metallurgy, biology, clinical medicine, geology, and archaeology. Accelerators, reactors, and various instruments that have developed together with nuclear physics have often been found to offer the basis for increasingly productive and more sensitive analytical techniques.Nuclear Methods in Science and Technology provides scientists and engineers with a clear understanding of the basic principles of nuclear methods and their potential for applications in a wide range of disciplines.The first part of the book covers the major points of basic thr
