This course offers a fast-paced review of the basic physics of gamma-ray detection, formulation of spectra, interpretation of spectral data, interferences, and calculations. The course is two hours in duration and the American Academy of Health Physics will grant 4 Continuing Education Credits for completion (2010-00-004). Recent attendance at our Fundamentals of Gamma Spectroscopy I course is recommended but not required.

Learning Objectives: Upon completion of this course, student will have a working knowledge of gamma radiation detection, gamma-ray spectra content, spectrum evaluation, and gamma-ray spectroscopy analysis.
