Description
This book provides an introduction to the rapidly developing field of light exotic nuclei. The research of the exotic nuclei began with the advent of accelerated beams of such nuclei. This new technique has revitalized nuclear physics, and the facilities producing radioactive ion beams and their theoretical hinterland now offer students the experience of pioneering research. The first part of the book considers the theory of collisions of light exotic nuclei, and the second part is based on a multicluster model in which the intercluster motion is treated accurately. Current hot topics are included, as are more advanced areas of the theory, providing ideas for further study.
