Tours Symposium on Nuclear Physics V: Tours 2003: v. 5 (AIP Conference Proceedings / Tours Symposia on Nuclear Physics)

This book covers:- the latest developments in synthesizing super-heavy elements at RIKEN and GSI, and in theories of fusion-fission dynamics - studies of nuclei far from stability and clustering phenomena in nuclei including the present status and future plan of RIB facilities at GSI, GANIL, and RIKEN - transmutation of nuclear waste in Europe, Japan, and Asia- nuclear astrophysics with emphasis on nuclear physics in space, radio-nuclides in the galaxy, nuclear data for astrophysics, nuclear reactions for astrophysics, and neutron stars and other stars
