Synopsis
This book, like its first edition, addresses the fundamental principles of interaction between radiation and matter and the principle of particle detectors in a wide scope of fields, from low to high energy, including space physics and the medical environment. It provides abundant information about the processes of electromagnetic and hadronic energy deposition in matter, detecting systems, and performance and optimization of detectors.In this second edition, new sections dedicated to the following topics are included: space and high-energy physics radiation environment, non-ionizing energy loss (NIEL), displacement damage in silicon devices and detectors, single event effects, detection of slow and fast neutrons with silicon detectors, solar cells, pixel detectors, and additional material for dark matter detectors.This book will benefit graduate students and final-year undergraduates as a reference and supplement for courses in particle, astroparticle, and space physics and instrumentation. A part of it is directed toward courses in medical physics. The book can also be used by researchers in experimental particle physics at low, medium, and high energy who are dealing with instrumentation.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. This book originates from the lectures given to undergraduate and graduate students over several academic years in Milan and Montreal by the two authors. Student feedback resulted in a systematic and comprehensive presentation of the basic principles of a field which is under continuous development. The physics principles of radiation interaction with matter are introduced and discussed, providing the background knowledge to understand how radiation can be detected. The content allows the understanding of technical developments of detectors and detecting media of increasing complexity and sophistication.The chapters deal with collision and radiation energy losses by charged particles, photon absorption and nuclear collision in matter. Particular attention is given to the discussion of energy loss, electronic and nuclear stopping powers, energy straggling, and absorption of photons and hadrons in media. Furthermore, transport mechanisms in semiconductors are also discussed, as well as the physical processes resulting in displacement damage from non-ionizing energy-loss (NIEL) deposition. The book also covers the principles of particle energy determination, solid state detectors including pixel detectors and tracking devices in general, wire chambers, radiation environments and damages in semiconductor detectors, single event effects, space experiments, heliosphere and Earth magnetosphere, droplet detectors for dark matter search, double beta decay, and applications in the field of nuclear medicine. Detailed examples are presented which illustrate the operation of the various types of detectors. Their discussion helps the understanding of the optimization factors. Addresses the fundamental principles of interaction between radiation and matter and the principle of particle detectors in a wide scope of fields, from low to high energy, including space physics and the medical environment. This book provides information about the processes of electromagnetic and hadronic energy deposition in matter.
