The course is intended to introduce a student in the modern nuclear chemistry beginning from the discovery of the radioactivity through the nuclear reactions, interactions of the nuclear radiation with matter, radiometry, dosimetry to isotope methods in chemistry, biology, medicine and industry.

The lecture comprises the following topics: nucleus and nuclear transformations; natural and synthetic radioactive elements; sources and origin of particles and radioactivity; interaction of nuclear radiation with matter - absorption of radiation; radiometry and dosimetry; radiation chemistry; radiological protection; application of isotopes in science and technology: nuclear energy and nuclear reactors (power station), industrial application, nuclear medicine; application of isotopes in the study of the physicochemical processes and reactions mechanisms; the influence of isotope substitution on physical and chemical properties of chemical substances; isotope effects, separation of isotopes.

Lecture = 30 hours

Individual preparatio for each lecture ( 0,5 h weekly) = 7,5 hours

Preparation for the exam = 20 hours

Together = approximately 60 hours
