Recently a symbiotic relationship between particle and nuclear
physics has developed, with techniques and ideas from one field
fertilizing developments in the other. This work outlines concepts
from modern particle physics important to the current understanding
of nuclear physics and reviews experiments involving nuclei which
have influenced the present particle physics view of the weak
interaction. In his discussion, the author summarizes both past and
present activity in the field and identifies areas for future work.
Familiarity with quantum mechanics is assumed in the presentation
of ideas in this book intended for readers at the graduate level
and beyond. A major goal of Weak Interactions in Nuclei is to
encourage further activity at the intersection of particle and
nuclear physics, two path-breaking areas of study in modern
physics. Originally published in 1989. The Princeton Legacy Library
uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available
previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of
Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original
texts of these important books while presenting them in durable
paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy
Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage
found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University
Press since its founding in 1905.
