Product Description: This volume explores, explains, and supports the case for an advanced exotic beam facility from a theoretical perspective. The US nuclear physics community and the US Department of Energy are committed to building such a facility...read more

Product Description: The conference provided a forum for the presentation of recent and relevant results in nuclear structure. New projects for instrumentation and related theoretical approaches which will form the basis for research in the next decade were also discussed...read more

Product Description: The proceedings of the conference on Exotic Nuclei and Atomic Masses (ENAM98) are the scientific contributions to the most recent meeting in a long series that dates back to the late 1950s. The conference is held every three years and the participants produce a complete review of the fields of exotic nuclei; atomic masses, moments and radii of nuclei; fission, synthesis of heavy elements, the role of radioactive nuclei in the cosmos, fundamental studies and use of radioactive ion beams...read more (view table of contents, read Amazon.com's description)

Product Description: In this volume, the structure and reactions of radioactive nuclei are described. The relevance of halo nuclei to nuclear astrophysics is stressed in different contributions. Other topics included are: three-body aspects of light neutron-rich nuclei, elastic scattering, charge exchange and Coulomb excitation, fragment moment distribution, mass at half-life measurement and electromagnetism-induced fission...read more

Product Description: The topics covered in this proceedings include synthesis of the heaviest isotopes of the lightest elements and the study of their properties, properties of neutron and proton-rich nuclei, some astrophysical problems, cluster radioactivity, present status and perspectives of producing radioactive nuclear beams and their applications, and new experimental facilities and projects...read more
