Excited Nuclear States - Nuclei with Z=48-60

DOWNLOAD EBOOKVolume I/25C is the third one in a series of volumes on the properties of the excited states of all nuclei. The data presented are collected from all kinds of nuclear reactions, including measurements of reactions with neutrons and γ-rays not yet fully considered in previous compilations. The nuclei considered also comprise nuclei far from the stability line. The properties of excited nuclear states are of importance for scientific and practical applications. No systematic compilation of such data has been performed so far. The present compilation has been prepared by eminent experts in the field. One of the characteristics of Landolt-Börnstein is that data are evaluated before they are accepted for compilation. The idea is to present ‘best values’ which can be used with confidence by non-experts. The present Volume I/25C is providing new data (energy levels, branching ratios, cross-sections, spectroscopic factors, etc.) for nuclei with atomic numbers Z ranging from 48 (Cd) to 60 (Nd)published in 2005-2011, thus supplementing previous compilations. Additionally, sections of the Introduction are devoted to spectroscopic information from γ-γ coincidences following the (n,γ) reaction. In view of the large amount of data available some of the information is given online only at www.springermaterials.com.
Chirality and Wobbling in Atomic Nuclei

ISBN-13: 1040165494
DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe book provides an introduction to both theoretical and experimental results on chirality and wobbling in atomic nuclei. It details the achievements in the study of chirality over the past 25 years since the first prediction of this mode of collective motion in nuclei, as well as those on the wobbling motion. It offers a detailed review of the most relevant theoretical developments on both types of collective motion and the experimental results supporting or not the theoretical predictions. Different views on wobbling are included and confronted with the contradicting experimental results on low-spin wobbling. It is intended to foster further the research on these types of exotic collective motion in nuclei. Which and how these exotic collective motions occur in nuclei, which are their predicted fingerprints and how they are supported by the experimental facts will be presented. Polemics, debates, and ambiguities of the interpretation of the experimental results will be exposed. The reader will have the opportunity to have together different views on the two phenomena which animated the scientific activity in low-energy nuclear physics in many laboratories around the world. The book will be a valuable reference for PhD students, post-docs and researchers in addition to universities and research institutions. Key Features: The first book on chirality and wobbling in nuclei Contains a comprehensive review of topics related to chirality and wobbling, including both theoretical and experimental aspects Contains chapters from leading researchers in the field.
Fundamentals of Nuclear Models

ISBN-13: 9812569553
DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book reviews the basic models and theories of nuclear structure and gives an in-depth analysis of their experimental and mathematical foundations. It shows the relationships between the models and exhibits the value of following the strategy of: looking for patterns in all the data available, developing phenomenological models to explain them, and finally giving the models a foundation in a fundamental microscopic theory of interacting neutrons and protons. This unique book takes a newcomer from an introduction to nuclear structure physics to the frontiers of the subject along a painless path. It provides both the experimental and mathematical foundations of the essential models in a way that is accessible to a broad range of experimental and theoretical physicists. Thus, the book provides a unique resource and an exposition of the essential principles, mathematical structures, assumptions, and observational data on which the models and theories are based. It avoids discussion of many non-essential variations and technical details of the models.

The Nuclear Shell Model

ISBN-13: 3642972039
DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis book is aimed at enabling the reader to obtain a working knowledge of the nuclear shell model and to understand nuclear structure within the framework of the shell model. Attention is concentrated on a coherent, self-contained exposition of the main ideas behind the model with ample illustrations to give an idea beyond formal exposition of the concepts. Since this text grew out of a course taught for advanced undergraduate and first-year graduate students in theoretical nuclear physics, the accents are on a detailed exposition of the material with step-by-step derivations rather than on a superficial description of a large number of topics. In this sense, the book differs from a number of books on theoretical nuclear physics by narrowing the subject to only the nuclear shell model. Most of the expressions used in many of the existing books treating the nuclear shell model are derived here in more detail, in a practitioner's way. Due to frequent student requests I have expanded of detail in order to take away the typical phrase " . . . after some the level simple and straightforward algebra one finds . . . ". The material could probably be treated in a one-year course (implying going through the problem sets and setting up a number of numerical studies by using the provided computer codes). The book is essentially self-contained but requires an introductory course on quantum mechanics and nuclear physics on a more general level.
