Opis

The topics treated in this volume are intermediate and high-energy nuclear physics with real and virtual photons and the interplay between nuclear and particle physics. The first part, devoted to vector mesons, is also intended to explore the scientific perspectives of a new generation of electron accelerators. The second part is devoted to physics currently under study at intermediate-energy real-photon facilities with some emphasis on the Compton effect and its relation to quark models.

O autorze

Leading physicists discuss intermediate and high-energy nuclear physics with real and virtual photons. The interplay between nuclear and particle physics, especially with respect to new and forthcoming accelerators, is explored.
