This book fills the need for a coherent work combining carefully reviewed articles into a comprehensive overview accessible to research groups and lecturers.

This comprehensive text provides an introduction to basic nuclear physics, including nuclear decays and reactions and nuclear structure, while covering the essential areas of basic research and practical applications.

In this Very Short Introduction Frank Close describes the historical development of nuclear physics, our understanding of the nucleus, how nuclei form, and the applications of the field in medicine.

This book is a collection of invited talks, oral contributions and poster contributions devoted to advances in nuclear physics.

This book is based on a nuclear physics course the author has taught to graduate students at the Physics Department, College of Science, University of Baghdad, Iraq, for the period 19782007.
