Inverse scattering: applications in nuclear physics

Applications of nuclear physics.

Today the applications of nuclear physics span a very broad range of topics and fields. This review discusses a number of aspects of these applications, including selected topics and concepts in nuclear reactor physics, nuclear fusion, nuclear non-proliferation, nuclear-geophysics, and nuclear medicine. The review begins with a historic summary of the early years in applied nuclear physics, wit...

Approximation by Scattering Solutions and Applications to Inverse Scattering

Estimates of the growth of the norm of ν are given as → 0. Here ν(α) ∈ L 2 (S 2) is the function such that S 2 u(x, α)ν(α)dα − ψ L 2 (D) ≤ , u(x, α) is the scattering solution of the Schroedinger equation with a compactly supported potential, ψ is an exponentially growing at infinity solution to this equation, D ⊂ R 3 is a bounded domain. Estimates of this type are important in the inverse scat...

Laser Induced Nuclear Physics and Applications

Laser induced beams of protons, neutrons and gamma rays using short pulse lasers is currently important principally because of the potential applications e.g. isotope production, transmutation studies, laser induced fission, heavy ion fusion reactions, neutron production and radiography, fast ignitor and spallation studies of neutrons. Although the Strathclyde group in collaboration with teams ...
