“Resistive Gaseous Detectors” by Vladimir Peskov is a comprehensive guide to one of the most critical detector technologies of today.
In the first half of this book, Peskov’s international team presents the design and features of single- and double-layer resistive plate chamber detectors. This is followed by an examination of more advanced designs, including multi-layer detectors.
The second half of the book covers the applications of RPC technology in high energy physics, material science, medical imaging, and security scanning.
This book provides a clear, accessible summary of the latest developments in this important field, making it an essential resource for researchers and students in physics, materials, medicine, and other fields.

Описание книги от Vladimir Peskov
This first book to critically summarize the latest achievements and emerging applications within this interdisciplinary topic focuses on one of the most important types of detectors for elementary particles and photons: resistive plate chambers (RPCs). In the first part, the outstanding, international team of authors comprehensively describes and presents the features and design of single and double-layer RPCs before covering more advanced multi-layer RPCs. The second part then focuses on the application of RPCs in high energy physics, materials science, medicine and security. Throughout, the experienced authors adopt a didactic approach, with each subject presented in a simple way, increasing in complexity step by step.
