Download or read book Introduction To Nuclear And Particle Physics 2nd Edition written by Ashok Das and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2003-12-23 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The original edition of Introduction to Nuclear and Particle Physics was used with great success for single-semester courses on nuclear and particle physics offered by American and Canadian universities at the undergraduate level. It was also translated into German, and used overseas. Being less formal but well-written, this book is a good vehicle for learning the more intuitive rather than formal aspects of the subject. It is therefore of value to scientists with a minimal background in quantum mechanics, but is sufficiently substantive to have been recommended for graduate students interested in the fields covered in the text.In the second edition, the material begins with an exceptionally clear development of Rutherford scattering and, in the four following chapters, discusses sundry phenomenological issues concerning nuclear properties and structure, and general applications of radioactivity and of the nuclear force. This is followed by two chapters dealing with interactions of particles in matter, and how these characteristics are used to detect and identify such particles. A chapter on accelerators rounds out the experimental aspects of the field. The final seven chapters deal with elementary-particle phenomena, both before and after the realization of the Standard Model. This is interspersed with discussion of symmetries in classical physics and in the quantum domain, bringing into full focus the issues concerning CP violation, isotopic spin, and other symmetries. The final three chapters are devoted to the Standard Model and to possibly new physics beyond it, emphasizing unification of forces, supersymmetry, and other exciting areas of current research.The book contains several appendices on related subjects, such as special relativity, the nature of symmetry groups, etc. There are also many examples and problems in the text that are of value in gauging the reader's understanding of the material.

This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SHORT HISTORICAL NOTE Founded in January 1948 as the Institute for Physics it quickly attracted the attention of young talented university graduates of almost all fields of the natural and engineering sciences. As it grew, its research activities diversified, and by 1953 it had already become a recognized nuclear sciences research center. Its name underwent changes from the Institute for Physics, to the Institute for the Investigation of the Structure of Matter (1950), and to the "Boris Kidrich" Institute of Nuclear Sciences (1953), to arrive to its present name in January 1992. The foundation of the Institute was a reflection of the understanding that science is far too significant for a small developing country to be left to the care of universities alone. Consequently, with generous help from the Government, the growth of the Institute continued until the early Sixties. By then, two research reactors, several well equipped laboratories, and a rich library were put in operation - the Institute became well known and respected. In the late Sixties the Government, mainly for economic reasons, decided to make significant cuts in the national nuclear programme. As a result, a number of the Institute's research activities had to be replaced by research and development programmes associated with the country's industrial development. During the two Research areas Since its foundation in 1948 the basic and applied research activities o f the Institute have dea/t with the peaceful uses o f nuclear energy. They have gradually heen complemented hy research concerning classical aspects ofphysics, chemistry, biology, poxver engineering, environmental protection, electronics, etc. The last decade, heavily affected by the disintegration o f the country, has, to a great extent, been devoted to preservation o f the Institute's research potentials and to maintaining existing connections with the world ofscience.

The sixth conference in this series was held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in September 1995. The focus of the conference was "Computing for the next Millennium". High Energy Physics is at a point where major changes in the way data acquisition and computing problems are addressed will be called for in the high energy physics programs of the year 2000 and beyond. The conference covered a wide spectrum of topics including Data Access, Storage, and Analysis; Data Acquisition and Triggering; Worldwide Collaboration and Networking; Tools, Languages, and Software Development Environments; and special purpose processing systems. The papers presented both recent progress and radical approaches to computing problems as candidates for the basis of future computing in the field of high energy physics."--Provided by publisher

Download or read book Nuclear Physics written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2013-02-25 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The principal goals of the study were to articulate the scientific rationale and objectives of the field and then to take a long-term strategic view of U.S. nuclear science in the global context for setting future directions for the field. Nuclear Physics: Exploring the Heart of Matter provides a long-term assessment of an outlook for nuclear physics. The first phase of the report articulates the scientific rationale and objectives of the field, while the second phase provides a global context for the field and its long-term priorities and proposes a framework for progress through 2020 and beyond. In the second phase of the study, also developing a framework for progress through 2020 and beyond, the committee carefully considered the balance between universities and government facilities in terms of research and workforce development and the role of international collaborations in leveraging future investments. Nuclear physics today is a diverse field, encompassing research that spans dimensions from a tiny fraction of the volume of the individual particles (neutrons and protons) in the atomic nucleus to the enormous scales of astrophysical objects in the cosmos. Nuclear Physics: Exploring the Heart of Matter explains the research objectives, which include the desire not only to better understand the nature of matter interacting at the nuclear level, but also to describe the state of the universe that existed at the big bang. This report explains how the universe can now be studied in the most advanced colliding-beam accelerators, where strong forces are the dominant interactions, as well as the nature of neutrinos.
