Introduction to Experimental Nuclear Reactions is a book with a concise and simple approach on the subject of experimental nuclear physics. The subject being very technical is dealt with in a very lucid way so that the reader can grasp the concept and later gain hands on experience while doing field work. In this book, theoretical, experimental and instrumentation aspects are all covered with emphasis on accelerator based techniques which forms the basis of the subject of experimental nuclear physics. Other books on similar topics either concentrate on the physics aspects more while some others are more focussed on the instrumentation and radiation detection techniques while accelerator related concepts are less explained. One of the main stand alone features of the book is it's to the point approach that makes the book concise so that the beginner is not lost in the never ending details. The book discusses the following aspects . basic introduction to nuclear reactions two and three body kinematics accelerator based experimental techniques basic aspects of the accelerator and accessories vacuum physics radiation detector physics and its associated electronics Theoretical modelling and errors The book is mainly intended for students who aspire to pursue a career in experimental nuclear physics research or work in a nuclear accelerator laboratory. Chinmay Basu, PhD is a researcher in the field of experimental nuclear physics and his present interests are in the field of low energy nuclear astrophysics. He is a Professor and In charge of an accelerator facility at the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics, Kolkata.
