Lectures concerning uranium pollution, time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy (TRLFS), and radiometric dating

Within a comprehensive course in Radioecology, 5 special lectures were held in the Department of Applied Radiation and Isotopes, Faculty of Science, Kasetsart University, Chatuchak, Bangkok. Topics of these 5 lectures were “Kinds of radiation and radioactive decay”, “Natural occurring radionuclides and natural radiation”, “Age determination by radioactive decay and mass spectrometry”, “Speciation of radionuclides and time-resolved laser-induced fluorescence spectroscopy (TRLFS)”, and “Uranium as basement of nuclear energy production”. As a precondition for obtaining Credit Points for the students in the audience, a questionnaire was created concerning these 5 topics.
