Details
"Tracks to Innovation: Nuclear Tracks in Science and Technology (1998)" by Fleischer, Robert L is a astronomy book and space science reference focused on Cosmology. Best for students, researchers, and serious astronomy enthusiasts.
In the late 1950s, scientists at General Electric discovered that when mica is exposed to energetic charged particles, the particles leave latent tracks in the material. This discovery paved the way for not only a new and useful method of measuring radioactivity, but also for widespread applications in fields including geology, materials science, archaeology, and art history. In this volume, Fleischer presents the complete history and applications of this important technique. 108 illus.
