Can anyone recommend a classic text or two on atomic/nuclear physics that would be good places to start for someone with a background of graduate math, some physics (mechanics, thermo) and computer science (advanced degree)? Much thanks.

Krane's Introductory Nuclear Physics is often considered a standard text, and includes a crash course in quantum that might be enough for someone comfortable with linear PDE's. You may also like Knoll's Radiation Detection and Measurement if you are interested in electronics and apparatus.
