OverviewThis course text provides an intermediate level treatment on the topic of the nuclear structure, focussing on the collective properties of atomic nuclei. It follows the authors’ earlier work, ‘Nuclear Data: A Primer’, which provided an introduction to nuclear structure. This book goes into more detail on the specific topic of collective motion in nuclei. The book is divided into six main chapters that outline the necessary theory and critically review it in the light of available data. Video-based exercises are included to promote student learning and understanding. The book follows a pathway that is very useful to potential readers, particularly PhD students and advanced undergraduate students. Key Features Uses a data-driven approach to understanding nuclear structure Critically reviews theories in the light of available data Includes extensive video-based exercises Provides a personal view from experts in the field Full Product DetailsAuthor: David Jenkins (Professor, University of York) , John L Wood (Gerorgia Institute of Technology, USA)Publisher: Institute of Physics Publishing Imprint: Institute of Physics Publishing Dimensions: Width: 17.80cm , Height: 1.30cm , Length: 25.40cm ISBN: 9780750356411ISBN 10: 0750356413 Pages: 206 Publication Date: 14 December 2023 Audience: Professional and scholarly , Professional & Vocational Format: Hardback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print  This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.

Table of ContentsReviewsAuthor InformationDavid Jenkins is Head of the Nuclear Physics Group at the University of York, UK. He is also a Fellow of the Institute of Advanced Study, University of Strasbourg (USIAS) and an Extraordinary Professor of the University of Western Cape in South Africa. His research in experimental nuclear physics focusses on several topics such as nuclear astrophysics, clustering in nuclei and the study of proton-rich nuclei. In recent years, he has developed a strong strand of applications-related research with extensive industrial collaboration. He has led the development of bespoke radiation detectors for homeland security, nuclear decommissioning, borehole logging and medical applications. John Wood is a Professor Emeritus in the School of Physics at Georgia Institute of Technology. He continues to collaborate on research projects in both experimental and theoretical nuclear physics. Special research interests include nuclear shapes and systematics of nuclear structure. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
