Written to provide students who have limited backgrounds in the physical sciences and math with an accessible textbook on nuclear chemistry and physics, Introduction to Nuclear Science, Fourth Edition continues to provide a clear and complete introduction to nuclear chemistry and physics, from basic concepts to nuclear power and medical applications. Incorporating suggestions from adopting professors and collaborations with the U.S. Department of Energy-funded and American Chemical Society-sponsored Nuclear Chemistry Summer School, a new chapter on nuclear structure is now included. Also new to this edition : a section covering mass excess calculations, Isochron dating of rocks ; the section on statistics is completely re-written to better align with conventional instruction ; expanded discussion of recent changes in the nuclear power industry and nuclear medicine. This book covers energetics, nuclear stability and structure, radioactive decay and reactions, interactions of radiation with matter, detection methods, and safety measures, including monitoring and regulations. This updated, expanded edition provides a much-needed textbook and resource for undergraduate students in science and engineering as well as those studying nuclear medicine and radiation therapy.

This book develops the basic formalism and theoretical techniques for studying relativistic quantum field theory at high temperature and density. Specific physical theories treated include QED, QCD, electroweak theory, and effective nuclear field theories of hadronic and nuclear matter. Topics covered include: functional integral representation of the partition function, diagrammatic expansions, linear response theory, screening and plasma oscillations, spontaneous symmetry breaking, Goldstone theorem, resummation and hard thermal loops, lattice gauge theory, phase transitions, nucleation theory, quark-gluon plasma, and color superconductivity. Applications to astrophysics and cosmology cover white dwarf and neutron stars, neutrino emissivity, baryon number violation in the early universe, and cosmological phase transitions. Applications to relativistic nucleus-nucleus collisions are also included. The book is written for theorists in elementary particle physics, nuclear physics, astrophysics, and cosmology. Released initially in 2006, this title has been reissued as an Open Access publication on Cambridge Core.

Cet ouvrage se veut un entrainement à la résolution d'exercices classiques qui portent sur l'électromagnétisme (y compris l'optique) et la physique propre au monde microscopique. L'ouvrage propose une solution pour chaque question posée mais elle est volontairement limitée aux principales relations mathématiques ou à quelques indications. Ceci force l'apprenant à s'impliquer pour les comprendre et va ainsi le faire progresser dans son apprentissage. " Tu me dis, j'oublie. Tu m'enseignes, je me souviens. Tu m'impliques, j'apprends " (Benjamin Franklin).
