Research with radioactive ion beams has entered a new era with the advent of energetic beams of radioactive nuclei that are capable of inducing nuclear reactions. The present book is the first volume of edited lectures based on material presented at the Euroschool on Exotic Beams over the past years. It introduces the graduate student and nonspecialist scientist from related areas into various topics encompassing theoretical, experimental as well as application-related aspects of this growing field of research.
