Download or read book Proceedings of the International Workshop Fission Dynamics of Atomic Clusters and Nuclei written by Jo?o da Providˆncia and published by World Scientific. This book was released on 2001 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume, the main results of the last sixty years of research in nuclear fission are summarized, showing how ideas advanced from the beginning, for nuclei have also found useful applications in the new area of atomic clusters. The present status of the physics of fission is discussed in depth, and perspectives for further research are outlined.
