HOFSTADTER, Robert, "Electron Scattering and Nuclear Structure", in "Reviews of Modern Physics", American Physical Society, Lancaster PA and NYC, vol 28 number 3, July 1956, pp 214-255 in the issue of pp 171-362. Original wrappers. VG condition. (The main demerit here for condition is a missing half-inch chip of spine cover at top.) Includes other papers by some great and leading names: Marton, Pines, Massey, Gabor, and others. "Robert Hofstadter coined the term fermi, symbol fm, in honor of the Italian physicist Enrico Fermi (1901–1954), one of the founders of nuclear physics, in Hofstadter's 1956 paper published in the Reviews of Modern Physics [the paper offered here] The term is widely used by nuclear and particle physicists. When Hofstadter was awarded the 1961 Nobel Prize in Physics, it subsequently appears in the text of his 1961 Nobel Lecture."--Wikipedia [++] "Robert Hofstadter (1915 – 1990) .was the joint winner of the 1961 Nobel Prize in Physics (together with Rudolf Mössbauer) "for his pioneering studies of electron scattering in atomic nuclei and for his consequent discoveries concerning the structure of nucleons.After 1953 electron-scattering measurements became Hofstadter’s principal interest. With students and colleagues he investigated the charge distribution in atomic nuclei and afterwards the charge and magnetic moment distributions in the proton and neutron. The electron-scattering method was used to find the size and surface thickness parameters of nuclei. Many of the principal results on the proton and neutron were obtained in the years 1954-1957. Since 1957 emphasis in the research program has been placed on making more precise studies of the nucleon form factors."--Nobel Foundation website.…
