Description

' This classic volume, reprinted twenty years after it was first published, takes a close look at the theory of direct nuclear reactions. It emphasizes the microscopic aspects of these reactions and their description in terms of the changes induced in the motion of individual nucleons, except where collective motion in nuclei gives a more succinct description. Assuming only a modest knowledge of quantum mechanics and some acquaintance with angular momentum algebra, the book begins essentially at the beginning. Its goal is to provide the novice with the means of becoming competent to do research on direct reactions, and the experienced researcher with a detailed discussion of advanced topics. For completeness, appendices on angular momentum algebra and special functions are included.

Keywords:Direct Nuclear Reactions;Reaction Theory;Born Approximation;Optical Potential;Shell Model;Deformed Nuclei;Heavy Ion ReactionsReviews:“The emphasis throughout is on the formalism, which is very well described, rather than on the experimental data. The book can certainly be recommended as an extensive and reliable account of an important field.”Contemporary Physics “It is a concise presentation of the theoretical foundations of the direct nuclear reactions topic at a textbook level for graduate students. The work is also useful for specialists working in the field of nuclear reactions as an aide-memoire for various theoretical methods that maintained in the last decades their effectiveness.”Zentralblatt MATH '
