See moreThe second edition of Modern Nuclear Chemistry provides succinct coverage of basic physical principles of nuclear and radiochemistry bringing together a detailed, rigorous perspective on both the theoretical and practical aspects of this rapidly evolving field.
Written by established experts in the field, this book features in-depth discussions of proven scientific principles, current trends, and applications of nuclear chemistry to the sciences and engineering.
Modern Nuclear Chemistry provides up-to-date coverage of the latest research and examines the theoretical and practical aspects of nuclear and radiochemistry.
The book presents the basic physical principles of nuclear and radiochemistry in a succinct fashion, requiring no basic knowledge of quantum mechanics.
It adds discussion of mathematical tools and simulations to demonstrate various phenomena, includes new chapters on Nuclear Medicine, Nuclear Forensics, and Particle Physics, and provides updates to all other chapters.
The book includes additional in-chapter sample problems with solutions to help students.
Reviews of the 1st edition praise the book as "...an authoritative, comprehensive but succinct, state-of-the-art textbook..." (The Chemical Educator) and "...an excellent resource for libraries and laboratories supporting programmes requiring familiarity with nuclear processes..." (CHOICE).
