Information About
Intended for all physicists in the high energy, nuclear and mathematical physics community, this volume collects together the most important papers of Tony Hilton Royle Skyrme, together with commentaries and other articles relating to the life and work of Tony Skyrme. Skyrme's brilliant work provided an original solution to the problem of constructing fermions from bosons, formulating the topological soliton model of the nucleon, and his two-parameter model of effective interactions in nuclei has yielded a remarkably accurate description of nuclear structure.
