Tritium is used by all nuclear weapons states to increase the explosive yield of atomic bombs and to miniaturize them. However, this radioactive material has not yet been put under appropriate international control comparable to the nuclear safeguards applied for plutonium and uranium. It is a neglected material in efforts to control the spread and further development of nuclear weapons.
International Control of Tritium for Nuclear Non-Proliferation and Disarmament closes a gap in the literature on nuclear non-proliferation. It argues persuasively that a carefully designed tritium control...

This monograph incorporates the general physical concepts that form the foundation of the phenomenon of giant resonances and a review of the study of nuclear structure at finite temperature. It includes the study of the g-decay of giant resonances from compound nuclei.
