Synopsis

"Nuclear Physics: An Introduction" offers a straightforward introduction to the tools of modern nuclear physics, both experimental and mathematical. It emphasizes physical intuition and illuminating analogies, rather than formal mathematics. Topics covered include particle accelerators, radioactive series, types of nuclear reactions, detection of the neutrino, nuclear isomerism, binding energy of nuclei, fission chain reaction, and predictions of the shell model. Each chapter contains problems and illustrative examples. The treatment is self-contained, presupposing calculus and elementary vector analysis.
