Handbook of Nuclear Properties by Dorin Poenaru (English) Hardcover Book

The Nile on eBay   Handbook of Nuclear Properties by Dorin Poenaru, Walter Greiner

The purpose of the handbook is to provide a reference for a large readership (researchers, practitioners, and students) interested in the modern theoretical and experimental aspects of the most important nuclear properties such as masses, deformations, spins and parities, half-lives, nuclear and particle decay modes, as well as fundamental constants, and energy conversion factors.

FORMATHardcover LANGUAGEEnglish CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description

The need for this handbook is a direct consequence of a very large accumulation of new theoretical and experimental data on nucleur properties. The first five chapters are devoted to the presentation of experimental and theoretical aspects of the following topics: atomic masses of stable and radioactive nuclides; an intuitive way to understand the empirical trends of masses, based on a microscopic theory; Penning traps used as a modern mass spectrometer of highresolving power, accuracy and sensitivity; basic theoretical concepts and experimental techniques used to measure the nucleur shape parameters; new decay modes by hadron and cluster emission; the proton(p), and the beta-delayed particle emissions: neutron (n), 2n, 3n, 4n, p, 2p, 3p, d, t, etc. A series of tables are given in the second part of the handbook: fundamental constants and energy conversion factors; the decay modes of Gauge and Higgs bosons, leptons, quarks, mesons, baryons, and searches for free quarks, monoples, supersymmetries, compositeness, etc; selected alpha particle emitters; recommended data on y-ray and X-ray standards used for detector calibrations;a comprehensive table of all known nuclides (spin, parity, mass excess, half-life, or abundance for stable nuclei, and the main decay modes with the corresponding branching ratios).
