Frontiers in Nuclear Physics

These are the proceedings of the symposium on “Frontiers in Nuclear Physics” held at the Physikzentrum Bad Honnef from June 18 to 20, 2009. The workshop concentrated on recent advances in the understanding of the nuclear forces, fewnucleon systems and related topics. Included are a short contribution per talk. ∗ This symposium was supported in parts by funds provided from the Helmholtz Associat...

Exploring New Physics Frontiers Through Numerical Relativity

The demand to obtain answers to highly complex problems within strong-field gravity has been met with significant progress in the numerical solution of Einstein's equations - along with some spectacular results - in various setups. We review techniques for solving Einstein's equations in generic spacetimes, focusing on fully nonlinear evolutions but also on how to benchmark those results with p...

Nuclear Physics

the first importance. Behnke has demonstrated that the "lean body mass," since it represents the active tissue of a person, is superior to reference standards hitherto proposed for the estimation of physiological functions such as the masses of various organs and tissues and the volumes of the different fluid compartments in the body. In the present article, which has been reprinted as a short ...
