Nuclei And Particles: An Introduction To Nuclear And Subnuclear Physics

Description: Nuclei And Particles: An Introduction To Nuclear And Subnuclear Physics Segre, Emilio G. Product Overview Broad in its coverage and simple in its treatment, this classic introduction to nuclear and subnuclear physics is geared toward advanced undergraduates and graduate students of physics, chemistry, and engineering with some familiarity of basic quantum mechanics. The three-part approach advances from a brief history and introduction to cover tools, the nucleus, and particles. The first section's topics include the passage of radiation through matter, detection methods for nuclear radiation, particle accelerators, and radioactive decay. Part two's subjects include the elements of nuclear structure and systematics, alpha and gamma emission, beta decay, the two-body systems and nuclear forces, nuclear reactions, and neutrons. The third and final part introduces particle physics and examines leptons, pions and other bosons, baryons, weak interactions, and high-energy collision of hadrons. Problems vary considerably in difficulty, and several appendixes offer valuable supplements to the text.
