This is an authoritative compilation of information regarding methods and data used in all phases of nuclear engineering. Addressing nuclear engineers and scientists at all levels, this book provides a condensed reference on nuclear engineering since 1958.

This book presents the subject of nuclear fission through select chapters focusing on policy, economics, fundamentals, and applications within the nuclear fission domain. It provides an opportunity to explore contemporary and emerging frontiers. It examines nuclear fission and its benefits as a clean and reliable energy source while also discussing such topics as nuclear physics, economics, deployment and operation, and the status of sensors for nuclear energy applications.

While books on the medical applications of x-ray imaging exist, there is not one currently available that focuses on industrial applications. Full of color images that show clear spectrometry and rich with applications, X-Ray Imaging fills the need for a comprehensive work on modern industrial x-ray imaging. It reviews the fundamental science of x-ray imaging and addresses equipment and system configuration. Useful to a broad range of radiation imaging practitioners, the book looks at the rapid development and deployment of digital x-ray imaging system.
