Polushkin V. Nuclear Electronics: Superconducting Detectors and Processing Techniques

John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2004. – 405 p. – ISBN10: 0470857595With the commercialisation of superconducting particles and radiation detectors set to occur in the very near future, nuclear analytical instrumentation is taking a big step forward. These new detectors have a high degree of accuracy, stability and speed and are suitable for high-density multiplex integration in nuclear research laboratories and astrophysics. Furthermore, superconducting detectors can also be successfully applied to food safety, airport security systems, medical examinations, doping tests & forensic investigations.Detection Methods with Cryogenic Particle and Radiation Sensors
