NP - Previous Yr QP

This document provides an exam for a 2 hour nuclear and particle physics course divided into two parts. Part A contains 5 short answer questions about tensor forces, nuclear forces, nucleon-nucleon scattering, isospin formalism, and pions. Part B contains 3 longer answer questions about Yukawa's meson theory of nuclear forces, effective range theory of nucleon-proton scattering, and estimating the range of nuclear force from Yukawa theory. The exam is out of a total of 50 marks.
