Produktinformationen zu „Optically Stimulated Luminescence (PDF)“
Optically stimulated luminescence has developed into one of the leading optical techniques for the measurement and detection of ionizing radiation. This text covers, in a readable manner, advanced modern applications of the technique, how it can play a useful role in different areas of dosimetry and how to approach the challenges presented when working with optically stimulated luminescence.
The six chapters are as follows:
* Introduction, including a short history of OSL and details of successful applications
* Theory and Practical Aspects
* Personal Dosimetry
* Space Dosimetry
* Medical Dosimetry
* Other Applications and Concepts, including retrospective and accident dosimetry, environmental monitoring and UV dosimetry
Throughout the book, the underlying theory is discussed on an as-needed basis for a complete understanding of the phenomena, but with an emphasis of the practical applications of the technique. The authors also give background information and relevant key references on each method, inviting the reader to explore deeper into the subject independently.
Postgraduates, researchers, and those involved with radiation dosimetry will find this book particularly useful. The material is both relevant and accessible for both specialists and those new to the field, therefore is fundamental to any academic interested in modern advances of the subject.

Autoren-Porträt von Eduardo G. Yukihara, Stephen W. S. McKeever
Stephen W. S. McKeever is Vice President for Research andTechnology Transfer at Oklahoma State University (USA). He is also
a Regents Professor in the department of physics. He was
named a Noble Research Fellow in Optical Materials in 1987.
Professor McKeever was also named the MOST (More Oklahoma Science
and Technology) Chair of Experimental Physics in 1999. He is widely
known for his research in optically stimulated luminescence (OSL)
and thermoluminescence (TL) with specific applications to radiation
dosimetry. Major accomplishments in recent years include leading a
research team that the developed optically stimulated luminescence
as a means of personal radiation dosimetry. The patented technology
was used commercially to develop a radiation dosimeter system
currently used worldwide. His special interests are space radiation
dosimetry to monitor radiation doses to astronauts on long-duration
space flights, such as a manned mission to Mars. He has authored or
co-authored over 180 scientific publications and five books.
Eduardo G. Yukihara is an Assistant Professor at Oklahoma
State University. He has been involved with research on OSL since
2000, and his research group currently focuses on the development
of the OSL technique in various fields such as space dosimetry,
medical dosimetry, accident dosimetry, neutron dosimetry, as well
as investigations in basic properties of OSL materials. He has
presented material relating to this book to students in short
courses, colloquia, a conference summer school, and invited
conference presentations. In addition, he has been invited to write
a review paper on applications of OSL in medicine and biology to
the journal Physics in Medicine and Biology.
