9780309260404: Nuclear Physics: Exploring the Heart of Matter

Synopsis

Nuclear physics today is a diverse field, encompassing research that spans dimensions from a tiny fraction of the volume of the individual neutrons and protons that make up atomic nuclei to the enormous scales of astrophysical objects in the cosmos. Nuclear Physics: Exploring the Heart of Matter is the decadal review of this field. The principal goals of the study were to articulate the scientific rationale and objectives of the field and then to take a long-term strategic view of U.S. nuclear science, taking into account the global context in which this research takes place.
