Aimed at students taking a first course in nuclear physics, the text is divided into two broad sections. The first part provides a general introduction to nuclear physics, whilst the later half focuses on some of the most important and current applications, including nuclear medicine, instrumentation and energy from fission and fusion. Written from an experimental point of view, this text offers the reader many practical examples and problems to help encouage understanding. Although, complex material treatments are avoided, derivations of formulae are given as necessary, but with a minimum mathematical complexity. \u003cp\u003eCarefully written and structured, this book will appeal to science and engineering students who require an understanding of the fundamental principles of nuclear physics and its applications.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eNuclear Physics: Principles and Applications\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eis a modern approach to nuclear physics, covering the basic theory and emphasising many of the varied and important applications.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHas been carefully written and structured, to allow flexibility in use to match a variety of course needs and requirements.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIncludes a variety of examples and problems in each chapter, with hints to solving these included in the appendix.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAvoids complex and extensive mathematical treatments.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Wiley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47989701411045,"sku":"NP9780471979357","price":323.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780471979357.jpg?v=1761785162","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/nuclear-physics-isbn-9780471979357","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
