PREFACE Each summer, the Theoretical Physics Division of the Canadian Association of Physicists organizes a summer institute of two weeks duration on a current topic in theoretical physics. This volume contains the lectures from the Pacific Summer Institute held at Pearson College on Vancouver Island, B.C. (Canada) from August 23 to September 3, 1982. The Institute was titled "Progress in Nuclear Dynamics: Short-Distance Behavior in the Nucleus". The primary source of funds for the Institute came from NATO through its Advanced Study Institute programme. Significant financial support is also gratefully acknowledged from TRIUMF, Simon Fraser University, Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada, and Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd. The topic of the school was the role of the substructure of hadrons--quarks and gluons--in nuclear physics. This includes not only the effects which may be observed in specific nuclear states, such as form factors at large momentum transfer, or the presence of hidden color components in the ground states of few nucleon systems, but also effects which may be observed in the nuclear matter continuum: the phase transition from normal nuclear matter to a plasma of quarks and gluons. The current status of the long distance phenomenology of the nucleus--the interacting boson approximation and the role of n's and ~'s in nuclear structure, is also reviewed. Because it was the intention of the organizers of the Institute to make both nuclear and particle physicists who are interested in this topic fluent in each other's language, the lectures begin with a review of quantum chromodynamics and its implementation in particle physics. The Institute was organized by a committee whose membership included, in addition to DHB and RMW, Prof. B. Castel (Queen's University, Kingston), and Prof. K.S. Viswanathan (Simon Fraser University). Secretarial help was provided by TRIUMF in the person of Ms. I. Duelli, who also undertook the arduous task of typing the proceedings. Topics and speakers for the Institute were suggested by an International Advisory Committee, whose members were Profs. S.D. Drell (SLAC), J. Hilfner (Heidelberg), F.C. Khanna (Chalk River), v

We thank as well the staff at Pearson College, for helping to make the operation of the Institute as smooth as it was. Lastly, someone should be thanked for the.weather: two weeks without rain to enjoy the scenery and marine life of Canada's West Coast. Vancouver, B.C. April, 1983 David H. Boal, Director Richard M.
