NUC 01 - Nuclear Radiation 101

Start here if radiation is new to you. This course covers the fundamentals: what alpha, beta, gamma, and neutron radiation are, how they interact with matter, and how we detect and measure them safely. A practical foundation for every course that follows.

NUC 04 - Thermal Neutron Detectors and Detection

Neutrons play by different rules than gamma rays. This course explains thermal neutron detection: moderation, capture reactions, detector types, and where neutron measurement fits in security and research applications.
