Nuclear Energy de A.M. Perry

Nuclear Energy: The Collected Works, cartea A / 5

A.M. Perry Editat de Alvin M. Weinberg
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 16 dec 2011
Eugene Wigner is one of the very few scientists that maysafely be describedas creators of 20th-century physics.This volume of his Collected Works is devoted to hiscontributions to nuclear energy. In his Introduction andAnnotations A.M. Weinberg surveys Wigner's contributions tonuclear-reaction physics and nuclear engineering, at thesame time giving a glimpse of the early history ofnuclear-reactor technology. Wigner himself gave a lively andcritical account, which is published in this volume for thefirst time. Furthermore the book contains forty-two reportsand memoranda from 1941 to 1945 and twelve of Wigner's manypatents relating to nuclear energy.

Recenzii

"...it is a highly desirable addition to the library in any college where a physics program is in place, and it is an indispensable addition in any school where nuclear engineering is also taught." - American Journal of Physics
"I would recommend it to any budding nuclear phycist - and the older ones too!" - Australian & New Zealand Physicist
