Radiochemistry and Nuclear Chemistry 3rd Edition by Gregory Choppin, Jan-Olov Liljenzin, JAN RYDBERG and Christian Ekberg absolutely meets the authors targets, it's nicely written in a logical, objective, thought-frightening and quite simply readable style. It should appeal to the serious scholar of radio- and nuclear chemistry at either undergraduate or postgraduate degree, in addition to to readers with a more common curiosity in nuclear science and its affect on the environment.
This book is an excellent, readable account of a major part of the scientific achievements of more than half this century. The authors have dedicated the book to Nobel Laureate Glenn T. Seaborg and its scholarship makes it a becoming tribute. It is the examination of radiation from an atomic or molecular perspective, including elemental transformation and response results, as well as physical, health and medical properties.
This revised edition of one of many earliest and finest identified books on the topic has been updated to carry into educating the newest developments in research and the current hot topics in the field. As a way to additional improve the performance of this text, the authors have added quite a few instructing aids that embody an interactive website that features testing, examples in MathCAD with variable quantities and choices, hotlinks to relevant text sections from the book, and online self-grading texts.
As in the previous edition, readers can closely observe the structure of the chapters from the broad introduction by way of the more in depth descriptions of radiochemistry then nuclear radiation chemistry and at last the information to nuclear energy (including energy production, fuel cycle, and waste management).
The content contains fundamental chapters followed by those devoted to applications. Each chapter ends with a section of exercises (with answers) and literature references. An historic introduction (Ch. 1) leads to chapters on stable isotopes and isotope separation, on unstable isotopes and radioactivity, nd on radionuclides in nature (Ch. 2-5). Nuclear radiation, emission, absorbance, chemical effects (radiation chemistry), detection and uses is covered in four chapters (Ch. 6-9).
