Is the whole site on Nuclear Properties? The link itself does not direct you to the Introduction, or atleast I can't find it!

Unforunately it looks like those notes have disappeared.

Link to Department of Physics - Jyväskylän yliopisto (University of Jyväskylä), Finland

I'll have to delete this thread then.

Is it possible to create a permanent copy of these for future use?

Those notes were in html format, as usually many class/course notes are. The notes seem no longer available, so for that reason I'll be deleting thread, but hopefully we'll replace it with another.
