Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Long description:
"
This book represents a significant experimental advancement for the field of nuclear physics as it enhances our understanding of the giant dipole resonance (GDR) of atomic nuclei, a fundamental nuclear excitation inherent to virtually all nuclei, dominating their photo responses.
In particular, the work focuses on the experimental investigation of γ decay of the GDR, which, despite being a key property of this collective mode and despite decades of research on the GDR, has remained poorly characterized until now.
Key highlights of the thesis include:
• Development of a novel experimental approach to systematically study γ decay of the GDR using artificial MeV-photon sources.
• The first experimental application of this method to the GDRs of both spherical and deformed nuclei, yielding unprecedented data on the γ decay of this fundamental resonance from a Bayesian spectra-deconvolution analysis.
• Interpretation of the data in the framework of the macroscopic, geometrical model of the GDR, resulting in a groundbreaking validation of this elementary picture of the mode.
• Derivation of precise nuclear shape information from the γ-decay data allowing to furthermore test modern nuclear structure theory calculations of these observables, in particular nuclear triaxiality.
This book has a clear and accessible structure, introduces the basic physics and concepts underlying the experimental method, data analysis, and interpretation in detail and provides a thorough and reproducible description of the performed experiment and every step of the analysis.
This makes it understandable even to non-specialists and a valuable reference for future experimental work.
