Download or read book Large-scale Collective Motion Of Atomic Nuclei - Proceedings Of The International Symposium written by Giorgio Giardina and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 1997-07-01 with total page 762 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scope of the international meeting covered a broad range of the recent developments in nuclear physics, from heavy-ion collisions from Coulomb barrier through relativisitc energies (using stable and radioactive beams), to some applications of nuclear physics and other research fields. The lectures given at the meeting range from the most recent progress to future prospects in nuclear physics research.This volume focuses on recent developments in nuclear physics, with emphasis on the investigation of processes connected with large-amplitude collective motion in nuclei, such as heavy-ion fusion, giant multipole resonances, and nuclear fission and fragmentation.
