Handbook of Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis: with Neutron Beams
Manufacturer: Springer ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 1402013043 |
Book Description
Prompt gamma activation analysis (PGAA) is a unique, non-destructive nuclear analytical method with multi-element capabilities. It is most effective if intense neutron beams (especially cold beams) of nuclear reactors are used to induce the prompt gamma radiation. Based largely on the authors' pioneering research in cold neutron PGAA, the handbook describes the methodology in self-contained manner and reviews recent applications. The library of prompt gamma ray data and spectra for all natural elements, also provided on a CD-ROM supplement, is a unique aid to the practitioner. The level is understandable by a broad audience, which facilitates teaching and training.
The Handbook of Prompt Gamma Activation Analysis is a comprehensive handbook written for those practising the method, wanting to implement it at a reactor facility, or just looking for a powerful non-destructive method of element analysis. The book is also useful for nuclear physics, chemistry and engineering scientists, scholars and graduate students interested in neutron-induced gamma ray spectroscopy and nuclear analytical methods.

The Atomic Fingerprint: Neutron Activation Analysis
Bernard Keisch Manufacturer: University Press of the Pacific ProductGroup: Book Binding: Paperback ASIN: 1410206548 |
Book Description
You are a physicist investigating the properties of semiconductors. The electrical properties of one specimen are not quite like the others that you've studied. What makes this specimen different?You are a physician treating a patient who, because of a severe calcium deficiency, has been suffering from osteoporosis. Are you on the right track with your treatment?
You are an analytical chemist working for a plastics manufacturer. You have been asked by the plant superintendent to determine why some of the plastic coming from the plant has been discolored.
You are a curator working with the ancient coin collection in a large museum. A donor has just given the museum a group of 50 gold coins presumably about 1500 years old. Are they genuine?
You are a scientist working in the criminology laboratory of a large metropolitan city. A detective brings you a minute sample of paint taken from the clothing of a hit-and-run victim. He has a suspect whose automobile paint seems to match that sample. Can you determine his guilt or innocence?
Neutron activation analysis can be used to solve each of these problems and many more.

Intelligent Vision Systems for Industry
Bruce G. Batchelor , and Paul F. Whelan Manufacturer: Springer-Verlag Telos ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover ASIN: 3540199691 |
Book Description
The application of intelligent imaging techniques to industrial vision problems is an evolving aspect of current machine vision research. Machine vision is a relatively new technology, more concerned with systems engineering than with computer science, and with much to offer the manufacturing industry in terms of improving efficiency, safety and product quality. Beginning with an introductory chapter on the basic concepts, the authors develop these ideas to describe intelligent imaging techniques for use in a new generation of industrial imaging systems. Sections cover the application of AI languages such as Prolog, the use of multi-media interfaces and multi-processor systems, external device control, and colour recognition. The text concludes with a discussion of several case studies that illustrate how intelligent machine vision techniques can be used in industrial applications.Customer Reviews:
A book to take to the factory floor with you.......2000-09-07
WHAT I LIKED THE MOST ABOUT THE BOOK:
- Includes practical tips and checklists.
- Lots of code lists, blueprints and the like.
- Practical and implementation concerns from start to end.
- Nice motivating introduction.
WHAT I DONT LIKE ABOUT THE BOOK:
- Includes a couple naive theoretical issues (useless)
- It's too much specific to Prolog+ programming language, though this is a high-level, easy to grasp language.
OVERALL: A VERY GOOD book for those who are familiar with Computer Vision (academic) and are trying to understand the problems of Machine Vision (engineering), written by someone who obviously understands both worlds deeply.
