The three articles of the present volume clearly exhibit a wide
scope of articles, which is the aim of this series. The article by
Kahana and Baltz lies in the main flow of the large stream of work
currently in progress with heavy-ion accelerators. A related
article by Terry Fortune on "Multinuclear Transfer Reactions with
Heavy Ions" is scheduled to appear in the next volume. The article
by Whitehead, Watt, Cole, and Morrison pertains to the
nuclear-shell model for which a number of articles have appeared in
our series. Our very first volume had an article on how SU(3)
techniques can, with great elegance, enable one to cope with the
sizable number of states within a configuration. But the actual
nuclear force is not exactly that yielded by the elegant
techniques, and so interest continued in dealing with the large
number of states by brute force. Then the Glasgow school of
Whitehead et al. discovered that mathematical techniques existed
for coping more simply with the lowest eigenvalues of large
matrices. The present ar ticle aims generally to make accessible to
nuclear physicists the methods developed at Glasgow. The final
article by Baer, Crowe, and Truol on radiative pion capture
describes a new field of importance because of the advent of the
meson factories. More and more pions and muons will become standard
tools in nuclear physics."
