More about the book
This comprehensive work begins with an introductory session that includes a welcome address and an overview of resonance reaction theories, followed by a detailed analysis of resonance reaction experiments. It covers high-resolution neutron cross sections and spectroscopy in various natural elements, comparing Feshbach and R-Matrix theories for specific reactions. The text delves into the statistics of resonance parameters, discussing fluctuations in charged particle cross sections, coherence widths in compound nuclei, and the distribution of neutron and fission widths. It also examines level spacings and correlation functions, alongside recent experimental results that test statistical theories. The second part of the statistics section focuses on measuring radiative capture widths and investigating gamma-ray spectra from specific reactions. It explores decay properties and correlations between partial widths of different channels, seeking non-statistical effects in neutron capture. The work further discusses average resonance parameters, strength functions, and total neutron cross sections of heavy elements, alongside the optical model's role. Subsequent sections survey nuclear level density theories, experimental densities, and fluctuation analyses of neutron cross sections. The text also addresses the decay of the compound nucleus, evaporation spectra, and the role of angular momentum in nuclear reactions. It concludes w
