Number theory and nuclear physics

[only_huce]

I am currently taking a course in number theory, and I stumbled upon a book on amazon which relates number theory to quantum and nuclear physics...

Is this possible? In what areas and how? As previously mentioned I am taking a course on it so if anyone can give the specific mathematical details of what is exactly used from number theory it would be greatly appreciated.

Which book?

Number Theory and the Periodicity of Matter

by Jan C.A. Boeyens and Demetrius C. Levendis

Here's the link

 

[Vanadium 50]

This may seem radical, but maybe if you are interested in what the book says, you might read the book.

I took a look at a few excerpts on Amazon, and to make an honest review, I'd have to (like I said) read the book, but it seems more a juxtaposition of the two concepts than explaining one in terms of the other.
