Welcome - Radiological Physics PHYC 6421   Radiological Physics
CREDIT HOURS: 3
The material in this course is designed to teach a graduate in physics (or engineering, with strong physics and math) the basics of radiological physics and dosimetry. Quantities and units are introduced early so that radioactive decay and radiation interactions can then be discussed, with emphasis on energy transfer and dose deposition. Exponential attenuation under both narrow and broad-beam conditions must be understood before a student can go on a shielding design in a health physics course.
