Can someone suggest a good reference on industrial uses of radioactivity, and
how different methods work? Examples would be how a soil density/moisture gauge
works and is used, the principle and use of static eliminators on assembly
lines, et cetera. The uses I'm primarily seeking explanations for are industrial
and commercial uses, not laboratory or medical uses.
Suggestions, costs, and purchasing sources would be appreciated.
Incidentally, a reference like this might be of general interest in explaining
to the anti-nuclear crowd that the benefits of radioactive materials are not
limited to nuclear power plants, or even to medical uses.
