Giant Resonances (Contemporary Concepts in Physics)

This monograph incorporates the general physical concepts that form the foundation of the phenomenon of giant resonances and a review of the study of nuclear structure at finite temperature. It includes the study of the g-decay of giant resonances from compound nuclei (finite temperature), and the study of giant resonances based on the atomic nucleus ground state (zero temperature). Research on the structure of hot nuclei is presented, providing experimentalist with a guide for uses of gamma ray detectors.
