This is a one semester graduate course in Nuclear Physics. The first lecture will be on Monday January 28 at 11.45 am.
The following is a list of topics to be discussed in this lecture.
| The Standard Model | Level Density |
| QCD | Level Correlations |
| Electro-Weak Interactions | Classical Chaos |
| The Nucleon | Quantum Chaos |
| Bag Model | Theory of S-Matrix Fluctuations |
| Skyrme Model | Elastic Enhancement Factor |
| The Nucleon-Nucleon Interaction | Spreading Width |
| The Deuteron | Ericson Fluctuations |
| Infinite Range Approximation | Infinite Nuclear Matter |
| Shell Model | Nuclear Equation of State |
| Liquid Drop Model | Fermi Liquid Theory |
| Compound Nucleus | Landau Parameters |
| Bjorken Picture of Heavy Ion Collisions | Relativistic Hydrodynamics |
| Bolsteri-Brwon Model | Lipkin Model |
| Statistical Spectroscopy | Two-Body Random Matrix Ensemble |
I will not follow a particular textbook, but books that cover some of the things I will discuss are the following:
H. Frauenfelder and E.M. Henley, Introduction to Nuclear and
Particle Physics
S.S.M. Wong, Nuclear Physics.
Office Hours: Wednesday-Friday, 1.00 - 2.30
