Radioisotopes in Zambia
Description
The paper deals with the development of nuclear science and techniques in Zambia. The program was initiated by the University of Zambia after its establishment in 1966. At present, investigations using radioisotopes are under way in medicine, crop production and veterinary sciences. Technical assistance from IAEA will greatly expand such activities. It is hoped to start a personal radiation monitoring service in the country. The problems of professional and technical personnel are discussed and their solution outlined. (author)
Abstract (French)
Le mémoire traite du progrès des sciences et techniques nucléaires en Zambie, dans le cadre du programme lancé par l'Université de Zambie, après sa fondation en 1966. Des recherches à l'aide des radioisotopes sont en cours dans les domaines de la médecine, de V agriculture et des sciences vétérinaires. L'assistance technique de l'AIEA contribuera considérablement à l'expansion de ces activités. On espère pouvoir établir un service de contrôle radiologique individuel. Les problèmes relatifs aux cadres et aux agents techniques sont examinés et des solutions esquissées. (author)Additional details
