Summary By some calculations‚ the chances that India will test a nuclear weapon in the coming years are not high. But if India again surprises the world as it did in 1998 with five nuclear explosions in the desert of Rajasthan‚ then conversations on the implications for the Indo-U.S. civil-nuclear deal will begin. The record of debate on testing during negotiations reflects the depth of American concern that testing will lead to unstable nuclear escalation and the lengths the U.S. went to in order to deter

At this time in our world we live in I do believe nuclear terrorism is a huge threat and the U.S. should be very concerned about it. It was noted by Jeffrey T. Richelson that “declassified documents have confirmed that the U.S. (and other) governments have anticipated the possibility of a terrorist nuclear incident at such high-profile events as the 2009 inauguration of President Barack Obama and the 2010 Vancouver Olympics” (Richelson 2012). United States government officials have been concerned

Hello. In this report I will be informing you about nuclear energy. Prior to giving this information‚ let’s look at some history. Ancient Greek philosophers were the first to come up with the idea that matter is made up of invisible particles. The Greeks called these invisible particles "atoms"‚ which is Greek for invisible. Scientists studied this idea in the 18th and 19th centuries. After many experiments physicists found out that atoms contain a large amount of energy. Ernest Rutherford

Nuclear power is one of the most controversial energy sources in Canada and also throughout the world and is being talked about very frequently lately as to whether or not it is a safe alternative to other forms of energy such as coal or oil. In my opinion‚ energy from uranium (nuclear power) is a reasonable alternative to other forms of energy that come from non-renewable resources that are rapidly depleting. In the following essay I will enforce my opinion in the subject and attempt to convince

NUCLEAR POWER I’m against nuclear power because in my opinion it is very dangerous mostly for the population that live in the area of a nuclear power plant‚ but also for the environment and in generally for the health of all the Earth. I’m against the use of nuclear power for obvious reasons such as accidents in the nuclear power plant then in the history had made destruction and death‚ to give the two most famous examples Chernobyl(1986) and Fukushima(2011).

Nuclear Medicine Nuclear medicine has been around for more than 50 years now and stems from the discovery of x-rays and artificial radioactivity. In 1946‚ nuclear medicine made a monumental breakthrough when radioactive iodine led to the complete disappearance of cancer in a patient’s thyroid. Nuclear medicine became widely used in the 1950’s to measure the function of the thyroid‚ to diagnose thyroid disease‚ and for the treatment of patients with hyperthyroidism. By the 1970’s nuclear medicine
