The R-Process : the Astrophysical Origin of the Heavy Elements and Related Rare Isotope Accelerator Physics - Procs of the First Argonne/Msu/Jina/Int Ria Workshop.

The r-process is a major mechanism for producing elements heavier than Fe. In this book, a summary of recent developments in theoretical, experimental and observational studies of the r-process are presented in 25 contributions. The collected papers are up to date, comprehensive and yet concise. The...
