Contact Christophe SAGE
Contenu This lecture introduces the basic concepts of nuclear physics and radiation-matter interactions : different modes of interaction of charged particules with matter (electron, positron, alpha, proton, ions) as well as the interactions of neutral radiations (photons and neutrons) with matter. The bases of radio-protection are also presented, with a description of particle interactions in biological matter and the standard radioprotection units.

- Components of Matter and the 4 interactions
- Concept of special relativity
- Nucleus properties : Rutherford experiment, radius, density, nuclide chart, binding energy

II. Interaction of radiation with matter
- Charged Particle interacting with matter
stopping power of heavy charged particules
Stopping power of electron and positron
Cerenkov, Transition radiations
- Photon Interacting with matter
Photoelectric effect
