Heavy Ion Reactions: The Elementary Processes, Parts III [Hardcover]

Combining elastic and inelastic processes with transfer reactions, this two-part volume explores how these events affect heavy ion collisions. Special attention is given to processes involving the transfer of two nucleons, which are specific for probing pairing correlations in nuclei. This novel treatment provides, together with the description of surface vibration and rotations, a unified picture of heavy ion reactions in terms of the elementary modes of nuclear excitation. Heavy Ion Reactions is essential reading for beginning graduate students as well as experienced researchers.Editors Foreword , Preface , Elastic and Inelastic Reactions , Nuclear Phenomena in Heavy-Ion Collisions , Coulomb Excitation , Elastic Scattering , Inelastic Scattering , Transfer Reactions , Transfer ReactionsCombining elastic and inelastic processes with transfer reactions, this two-part volume explores how these events affect heavy ion collisions.
