  • Theoretical Nuclear And Subnuclear Physicsby John Dirk Walecka

    World Scientific 2004; US$ 127.40

    Four key topics are emphasized: basic nuclear structure, the relativistic nuclear many-body problem, strong-coupling QCD, and electroweak interactions with nuclei. New chapters have been added on the many-particle shell model, effective field theory, density functional theory, heavy-ion reactions and quark?gluon plasma, neutrinos, and electron scattering. This book is designed to provide graduate students with a basic understanding of modern nuclear and hadronic physics needed to explore the frontiers of the field. Researchers will benefit from the updates on developments and the bibliography. more...

  • Statistical Mechanics Of Membranes And Surfacesby D. Nelson; T. Piran; S. Weinberg

    World Scientific 2004; US$ 62.40

    This invaluable book explores the delicate interplay between geometry and statistical mechanics in materials such as microemulsions, wetting and growth interfaces, bulk lyotropic liquid crystals, chalcogenide glasses and sheet polymers, using tools from the fields of polymer physics, differential geometry, field theory and critical phenomena. Several chapters have been updated relative to the classic 1989 edition. Moreover, there are now three entirely new chapters on effects of anisotropy and heterogeneity, on fixed connectivity membranes and on triangulated surface models of fluctuating membranes. more...

  • Nuclear Structure from a Simple Perspectiveby R. F. Casten

    Oxford University Press 1990; US$ 275.00

    The study of the low energy collective and single particle excitations of medium and heavy nuclei has undergone a rapid development. This book aims to survey and assess this development, from both the experimental and theoretical perspectives. It is intended for graduate students in this area. more...

  • Key Topics In Nuclear Structure - Proceedings Of The 8th International Spring Seminar On Nuclear Physicsby Aldo Covello

    World Scientific 2005; US$ 226.00

    Key Topics in Nuclear Structure is the eighth in a well established series of conferences and is devoted to the discussion of significant topics in nuclear structure. Both experimental and theoretical issues at the forefront of current research on the subject are covered by leading physicists. In particular, on the experimental side the state of the art and the envisaged developments in the most important laboratories, where rare isotope beams are available, are reviewed in detail. On the theoretical side, the various approaches to a fundamental theory of nuclear structure starting from the nucleon?nucleon interaction are discussed, ranging from the few-body systems, where ab initio calculations are possible, to the complex nuclei, where the... more...

  • Collective Motion And Phase Transitions In Nuclear Systemsby by A A Raduta; V Baran; A C Gheorghe

    World Scientific 2007; US$ 197.60

    This volume contains the invited contributions that were presented at the Predeal International Summer School in Nuclear Physics 2006. It covers the recent achievements in the fields of nuclear structure, double beta decay, nuclear multifragmentation, kaon and dilepton production in heavy ion collisions, and the quark–gluon plasma. The treatment is both theoretical and experimental, with emphasis on the collective aspects and related phase transitions. The papers are authored by many leading researchers in the field. more...

  • Nuclear Structure Far from Stabilityby A. Covello; F. Iachello; R.A. Ricci

    IOS Press 2008; US$ 285.00

    Gives an account of advances and various perspectives in the study of nuclei far from stability. This book deals with book nuclear structure models and their derivation from the basic nucleon-nucleon interaction. It discusses: the shell model, the interacting boson model and the cluster model. more...

  • Introduction to Cluster Dynamicsby Paul-Gerhard Reinhard; Eric Suraud

    Wiley-VCH 2008; US$ 215.00

    Clusters as mesoscopic particles represent an intermediate state of matter between single atoms and solid material. The tendency to miniaturise technical objects requires knowledge about systems which contain a "small" number of atoms or molecules only. This is all the more true for dynamical aspects, particularly in relation to the qick development of laser technology and femtosecond spectroscopy. Here, for the first time is a highly qualitative introduction to cluster physics. With its emphasis on cluster dynamics, this will be vital to everyone involved in this interdisciplinary subject. The authors cover the dynamics of clusters on a broad level, including recent developments of femtosecond laser spectroscopy on the one hand and time-dependent... more...

  • The Structure of the Nucleonby Anthony W. Thomas; Wolfram Weise

    John Wiley & Sons 2010; US$ 157.00

    As the only stable baryon, the nucleon is of crucial importance in particle physics. Since the nucleon is a building block for all atomic nuclei, there is a need to analyse the its structure in order to fully understand the essential properties of all atomic nuclei. After more than forty years of research on the nucleon, both the experimental and theoretical situations have matured to a point where a synthesis of the results becomes indispensable. Here, A.W. Thomas and W. Weise present a unique report on the extensive empirical studies, theoretical foundations and the different models of the nucleon. The appendices provide an extensive summary of formulae needed in practical calculations. From the contents: electromagnetic structure of the... more...

  • The Multifaceted Skyrmionby Gerald E. Brown; Mannque Rho

    World Scientific 2010; US$ 143.00

    This is a sequel to the World Scientific volume edited by Gerald E Brown in 1994 entitled "Selected Papers", with Commentary, of 'Tony Hilton Royle Skyrme'. There has been a series of impressive developments in the application of the skyrmion structure to wide-ranging physical phenomena. The first volume was mainly focused on the rediscovery of the skyrmion in 1983 in the context of Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and on its striking role in nuclear physics. Since 1994, skyrmions have been found to play an even greater role not only in various aspects of particle physics and astrophysics but also most remarkably in condensed matter physics. It is also proving to be fruitful in dense hadronic matter relevant to compact stars,... more...
