Our Mission
The primary objective of the International Radiation Physics Society (IRPS) is to promote the global exchange and integration of scientific information pertaining to the interdisciplinary subject of radiation physics, including the promotion of:
Research & Development
Theoretical and experimental research in radiation physics
Scientific Investigation
Investigation of physical aspects of interactions of radiations with living systems
Education
Education in radiation physics and knowledge dissemination
Peaceful Applications
Utilization of radiations for peaceful purposes
What is Radiation Physics?
The Constitution of the IRPS defines Radiation Physics as "the branch of science which deals with the physical aspects of interactions of radiations (both electromagnetic and particulate) with matter." It thus differs in emphasis both from atomic and nuclear physics and from radiation biology and medicine, instead focusing on the radiations.
