The Fourth International Symposium on Polarization Phenomena in Nuclear Reactions took place from August 25 to 29, 1975, at the Swiss Federal Instituteof Technology in Zurich (ETHZ). Apart from the host institution the Symposium was also supported by the International Union of Pure and Applied Physics, the Swiss National Science Founda tion and the Swiss Physical Society. The program of the Symposium was set up with the advice of an International Program Committee with the following members: Prof. I. Ja. Barit, USSR Academy of Sciences, Moscow, USSR Prof. E. Baumgartner, University of Basel, Basel, Switzerland Prof. H. E. Conzett, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, Berkeley, USA Dr. W. Gruebler, Laboratorium fUr Kernphysik, ETH Zurich Prof. W. Haeberli, University of Wisconsin, Madison, USA Prof. S. S. Hanna, Stanford University, Stanford, USA Prof. J. McKee, University of Manitoba, Winnipeg, Canada Prof. G. C. Morrison, University of Birmingham, England Dr. G. G. Ohlsen, LASL, Las Alamos, USA Prof. J. Raynal, C. E. N. Saclay, France Dr. M. Simonius, Laboratorium fUr Kernphysik, ETH Zurich The Local Organizing Committee consisted of Dr. R. Balzer Dr. W. Grtiebler Dr. H. Jung Dr. V. Konig Prof. J. Lang Dr. M. Simonius Prof. W. G. Weitkamp (on leave from University of Washington, Seattle) It was generally felt that the Fourth Polarization Symposium should emphasize the importance of polarization measurements in the different fields of nuclear physics and explain the physical content of polariza tion phenomena."

The measurement of spin-polarization observables in reactions of nuclei and particles is of great utility and advantage when the effects of single-spin sub-states are to be investigated. Indeed, the unpolarized differential cross-section encompasses the averaging over the spin states of the particles, and thus loses details of the interaction process. This introductory text combines, in a single volume, course-based lecture notes on spin physics and on polarized-ion sources with the aim of providing a concise yet self-contained starting point for newcomers to the field, as well as for lecturers in search of suitable material for their courses and seminars. A significant part of the book is devoted to introducing the formal theory—a description of polarization and of nuclear reactions with polarized particles. The remainder of the text describes the physical basis of methods and devices necessary to perform experiments with polarized particles and to measure polarization and polarization effects in nuclear reactions. The book concludes with a brief review of modern applications in medicine and fusion energy research. For reasons of conciseness and of the pedagogical aims of this volume, examples are mainly taken from low-energy installations such as tandem Van de Graaff laboratories, although the emphasis of present research is shifting to medium- and high-energy nuclear physics. Consequently, this volume is restricted to describing non-relativistic processes and focuses on the energy range from astrophysical energies (a few keV) to tens of MeV. It is further restricted to polarimetry of hadronic particles.

The main theme of the workshop is to discuss problems of nucleosynthesis in the Universe, specifically in connections to the unstable atomic nuclei, which would play a crucial role in explosive burning processes. This subject is strongly backed up by an increasing interest in studying unstable nuclei in nuclear physics.The subjects include primordial nucleosynthesis, Hot-CNO cycle and rapid-proton process, neutrino-induced nucleosynthesis, equation of state of neutron-rich matter etc.
