"Unravelling the Mystery of the Atomic Nucleus" is a history of
atomic and nuclear physics. It begins in 1896 with the discovery of
radioactivity, which leads to the discovery of the nucleus at the
center of the atom. It follows the experimental discoveries and the
theoretical developments up to the end of the Fifties.
Unlike previous books regarding on history of nuclear physics,
this book methodically describes how advances in technology enabled
physicists to probe the physical properties of nuclei as well as
how the physical laws which govern these microscopic systems were
progressively discovered. The reader will gain a clear
understanding of how theory is inextricably intertwined with the
progress of technology.
"Unravelling the Mystery of the Atomic Nucleus" will be of
interest to physicists and to historians of physics, as well as
those interested development of science.
