The Physics of Particle Detectors (Cambridge Monographs on Particle Physics, Nuclear Physics and Cosmology)

"This text provides a comprehensive introduction to the physical principles and design of particle detectors, covering all major detector types in use today. The emphasis is placed on explaining the physical principles on which detection is based, and showing, by considering appropriate examples, how those principles are best utilized in real detectors. This approach also reveals the limitations that are intrinsic to different devices. Exercises and detailed further reading lists are included." "This book will be of interest and value to undergraduates, graduates and researchers in both particle and nuclear physics."--Jacket.

המשפט הראשון: Textbooks on detectors often jump directly into a description of the devices themselves.
