Indeed, the unpolarized differential cross-section encompasses the averaging over the spin states of the particles, and thus loses details of the interaction process. This introductory text combines, in a single volume, course-based lecture notes on spin physics and on polarized-ion sources with the aim of providing a concise yet self-contained starting point for newcomers to the field, as well as for lecturers in search of suitable material for their courses and seminars.   A significant part of the book is devoted to introducing the formal theory?a description of polarization and of nuclear reactions with polarized particles. The remainder of the text describes the physical basis of methods and devices necessary to perform experiments with polarized particles and to measure polarization and polarization effects in nuclear reactions. The book concludes with a brief review of modern applications in medicine and fusion energy research. For reasons of conciseness and of the pedagogical aims of this volume, examples are mainly taken from low-energy installations such as tandem Van de Graaff laboratories, although the emphasis of present research is shifting to medium- and high-energy nuclear physics. Consequently, this volume is restricted to describing non-relativistic processes and focuses on the energy range from astrophysical energies (a few keV) to tens of MeV. It is further restricted to polarimetry of hadronic particles. 410 0$aLecture Notes in Physics,$x0075-8450 ;$v842 606 $aNuclear physics 606 $aHeavy ions 606 $aPhysical measurements 606 $aMeasurement    606 $aQuantum physics 606 $aNuclear Physics, Heavy Ions, Hadrons$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P23010 606 $aMeasurement Science and Instrumentation$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P31040 606 $aQuantum Physics$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/P19080 615 0$aNuclear physics. 615 0$aHeavy ions. 615 0$aPhysical measurements. 615 0$aMeasurement   . 615 0$aQuantum physics. 615 14$aNuclear Physics, Heavy Ions, Hadrons. 615 24$aMeasurement Science and Instrumentation. 615 24$aQuantum Physics. 676 $a539.7092 700 $aPaetz gen.
