Learning outcomes
The aim of the subject "RADIO-ANALYTICAL METHODS OF MATERIAL STUDY" is to understand their use in determining the trace concentrations of radioactive elements in the studied materials. The subject also describes the safety principles of working with radioactive substances. The content of the lectures can be divided into the following thematic areas: (i) basics of nuclear reactions and properties of ionizing radiation (ii) methods for detecting ionizing radiation (detection of alpha, beta and gamma radiation) and (iii) interpretation of measured data. Analytical methods (neutron diffractometry and neutron analytical methods, neutron optics, powder diffraction, gamma spectrometry, scintillation spectrometry, sorption determination of selected radionuclides) are part of the subject "Radioanalytical methods of material studies".
