Description
Lecture1: “Motivation and Preparation”
In the first of two sessions, we identify what we hope to learn by studying exotic nuclei and how we
can relate it back to theory and confront the predictions with our experimental results. The questions
that we address are: What is the reason to study nuclei far from stability? Why is nucleon transfer one
of the preferred methods of study? What do we need to measure? What experimental tools do we
need?
Lecture 2: “Experimental measurements, interpretation and outlook”
In the second session, we examine the data from experimental studies and how we can interpret the
results. The questions addressed in this session are: What is the energy spectrum of the populated
states? How do we interpret the relative strengths of different states? What can we learn about the
angular momentum from the detected particles? What do we learn from the gamma rays? How can
we combine the information? What experiments can we plan for the future?
