Nuclear physics : principles and applications

This title provides the latest information on nuclear physics. Based on a course entitled Applications of Nuclear Physics. Written from an experimental point of view this text is broadly divided into two parts, firstly a general introduction to Nuclear Physics and secondly its applications. aeo Includes chapters on practical examples and problems aeo Contains hints to solving problems which are included in the appendix aeo Avoids complex and extensive mathematical treatments aeo A modern approach to nuclear physics, covering the basic theory, but emphasising the many and important applications
