Nuclear physics is almost immediately experiencing a thrust in the direction of primary phy sics questions. Low-energy experiments assist in checking out past trendy stan dard types of particle physics. the quest for finite neutrino plenty and neutrino oscillations, for proton decay, infrequent and forbidden muon and pion de cays, for an electrical dipole second of the neutron denote a few of the efforts to check present day theories of grand unification (GUTs, SUSYs, Superstrings, .
