An Introduction to Experimental Nuclear Reactions is a book with a
concise and simple approach to the subject of experimental nuclear
physics. The subject being very technical, it is dealt with in a lucid
way so that the reader can grasp the concept and later gain hands-on
experience while doing fieldwork. In this book, theoretical,
experimental and instrumentation aspects are covered with an emphasis
on accelerator-based techniques, which form the basis for the subject
of experimental nuclear physics. Other books on similar topics either
concentrate on the physics aspects or are more focussed on the
instrumentation and radiation detection techniques while
accelerator-related concepts are less explained. One of the main
standalone features of the book is its to-the-point approach so that
the beginner is not lost in the never-ending details. This book
discusses the following aspects: Basic introduction to nuclear
reactions Two- and three-body kinematics Accelerator-based
experimental techniques Basic aspects of the accelerator and
accessories Vacuum physics Radiation detector physics and its
associated electronics Theoretical modelling and errors This book is
mainly intended for students who aspire to pursue a career in
experimental nuclear physics research or work in a nuclear accelerator
laboratory. Chinmay Basu, PhD, is a researcher in the field of
experimental nuclear physics, and his present interests are in the
field of low-energy nuclear astrophysics. He is a professor and head
of an accelerator facility at the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics,
Kolkata, India.
