Reviews of accelerator science and technology.Volume 4,Accelerator Applications in industry and the environment /Alexander W. Chao, Weiren Chou, editors. -Singapore :World Scientific,2011

291 tr. ;27 cm

There are two major categories of industrial applications: materials processing and treatment, and materials analysis. Materials processing and treatment includes ion implantation (semi-conductor materials, metals, ceramics, etc.) and electron beam irradiation (sterilization of medical devices, food pasteurization, treatment of carcasses and tires, cross-linking of polymers, cutting and welding, curing of composites, etc.). Materials analysis covers ion beam analysis (IBA), non-destructive detection using photons and neutrons, as well as accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). All the products that are processed, treated and inspected using beams from particle accelerators are estimated to have a collective value of US00 billion per annum worldwide. This volume contains fourteen articles, all authored by renowned scientists in their respective fields.
