Robert L. Fleischer, research professor of geology, is author of
a book titled Tracks to Innovation: Nuclear Tracks in Science and Technology (Springer).
Fleischer, one of three scientists who discovered in the early 1960s that chemical etching
of irradiated material reveals nuclear tracks, describes how the discovery paved the way
for a new and useful method of detecting nuclear radiation and widespread applications in
other fields. For example, naturally-produced tracks can be used to estimate the age and
temperature history of a mineral deposit or an archaeological material; and deliberately
produced tracks can be used to make extremely fine, uniform filters.
