The understanding of the way in which the radiation interacts with the matter and thus how they can be revealed. To know the mechanisms that regulate key nuclear reactions such as fission. Provide the basis for understanding the effects of radiation on biological material, the radiation dose meaning. TEACHING METHODS lectures, the slides used during the lessons will be available in aulaweb. SYLLABUS/CONTENT The atomic nucleus structure: binding energy, mass, radius. Nuclear models. Natural radioactivity and the radioactivity decay law. Radioactive decay processes: α and β decay, γ transitions, nuclear fission. Interaction radiation-matter. Radiation measurements : gas counters, scintillation and semiconductor detectors. Nuclear reactions: energetics, cross sections, mechanisms, nuclear fission. Thermonuclear reactions. Radiation biology, dosimetry. Analytical and technological applications of the radiations. RECOMMENDED READING/BIBLIOGRAPHY All the slides used will be available on aulaweb.
