Heavy Ions in Nuclear and Atomic Physics, an area of growing interest, aims to familiarise graduate students with new concepts and results in both the theoretical and experimental aspects of this sphere of physics. Based on the 1988 annual International Summer School in Nuclear Physics, organized by Warsaw University, Heavy Ions in Nuclear and Atomic Physics brings together invited papers on a diversity of topics. These include mechanisms of heavy-ion reactions, high-energy gamma-ray production in heavy-ion collisions, the influence of nuclear spin on reaction mechanisms and nuclear structure investigated by means of heavy-ion reactions. Nuclear scientists from some 14 countries, including USA and Japan, have contributed to this volume, which should be of considerable value to nuclear, atomic and high-energy physicists and astrophysicists at graduate level and above.
