Nuclear Models

Nuclear Models is a thorough introduction to the most important concepts and methods in this field. It is for students of theoretical and experimental physics, and scientists needing a reference and exercise book for this subject. The book presents the necessary mathematical tools along with many examples and worked problems. Rather than the presentation of a large number of results, the emphasis is on a discussion of the physical ideas underlying the models and the mathematical techniques employed. Readers with a background in quantum mechanics will thus become acquainted with the necessary advanced methods from group theory and many-body physics. In addition to the standard collective and single-particle models, a number of current topics are discussed.Greiner, Walter is the author of 'Nuclear Models' with ISBN 9783540780465 and ISBN 3540780467.
