In the study of radioactivity, one of the most valuable tools you'll need is the Chart of the Nuclides-a comprehensive presentation of all known atomic nuclei. The chart contains detailed information about atomic mass, energy, nuclear spin, radioactive decay properties, and numbers of protons and neutrons. If you are looking for a better way to learn how to read and interpret all this data, you'll want Chart of the Nuclides: A Tutorial. This interactive computer learning tool was designed to help anyone interested in the science of radiation-students and teachers, health technicians, engineers, even power plant workers-develop a better, more thorough understanding of the radioactive decay sequences available in the chart. The interface is simple, and the software contains general instructions for program use, basic terms and ideas, a detailed hypertext glossary featuring illustrations and animations, and a bibliography. This basic primer provides a fresh approach to learning terminology and understanding the considerable amount of information contained in the chart. This is a must for anyone who needs or wants to better understand the fundamentals of radioactivity! 20 pp. System Requirements:
