Abstract
The interaction of the nucleons in a nucleus is a problem which is as yet far from being solved. The principles of quantum mechanics can, however, be applied both to the motion of the nucleons in the nucleus and to the interaction of nucleons with the nucleus. Considerable success has been achieved in this way in recent years, and quantum mechanics has proved to be a sound guide to the physicist’s understanding of the complex pattern of nuclear interactions.
