Summary:

The articles published in this volume discuss nuclear dynamics using two approaches: the semiclassical aspects of the nuclear system and group theoretical considerations. The contributions cover experimental and theoretical results. The features of the borders between classical and quantum mechanical treatments, static and time-dependent behaviour, symmetries and broken symmetries, symmetries and dynamics, scattering states and group theory structure, fission and decay modes were also focused upon by very competent speakers. The volume concludes with two summary talks by A. Klein on theoretical and P. von Brentano on experimental aspects. The Brasov-School addressed researchers and graduate students also.
