with a nucleus that is seeking a more stable configuration by emitting radiation. Scientists have learned that more radioisotopes could be created by subjecting certain elements to radiation inside a nuclear reactor or bombarding them using a particle accelerator [2]. Nuclear medicine uses very small amounts of radioactive isotopes‚ or tracers‚ to diagnose and treat disease. A tracer having sufficiently long life span‚ or half life‚ should be selected to make it compatible with the

This report studies the Asia-Pacific nuclear medicine market over the forecast period of 2012-2017. The Asia-Pacific radiopharmaceutical market was valued at $500.8 million in 2012 and is poised to reach $824.9 million by 2017 at a CAGR of 10.5%. Similar to the global nuclear medicine market‚ the Asia-Pacific region is also minimizing its dependency on nuclear reactor by introducing hospital-based cyclotron facilities. This paves the way for novel isotopes such as Tl-201‚ F-18‚ and Rb-82 to capitalize

Nuclear Meltdown Throughout human history‚ there have been and continues to be scandals and cover-ups made by the government and city officials to save their own behinds. Where have all the honest people gone? No matter what the case maybe‚ money and a good reputation seem to prevail over the cost innocent lives. In 1959‚ Rocketdyne‚ a rocket-testing company in the Santa Susana Hills of Simi Valley had a meltdown. Although Rocketdyne representatives deny that the incident caused any type

would be more secure if the planet were free of nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons are the only type of weapon in existence that have the capacity to annihilate the human species and countless other species. The very existence of nuclear weapons leaves open the possibility that a nuclear exchange might take place. This could happen intentionally‚ inadvertently (as in the Cuban Missile Crisis when the U.S. and USSR almost blundered into nuclear war)‚ or by an accidental launch. The list of historical

questioned if I will in favor for nuclear power plant‚ I would say yes. Because Nuclear energy is the world’s largest source of emission-free energy. Nuclear power plants produce no controlled air pollutants‚ such as sulfur and particulates‚ or greenhouse gases. The use of nuclear energy in place of other energy sources helps to keep the air clean‚ preserve the Earth’s climate‚ avoid ground-level ozone formation and prevent acid rain. Of all energy sources‚ nuclear energy has perhaps the lowest impact

Nuclear Power in the United Arab Emirates (updated December 2012) * The UAE is taking deliberate steps in close consultation with the International Atomic Energy Agency to embark upon a nuclear power program. * It has accepted a $20 billion bid from a South Korean consortium to build four commercial nuclear power reactors‚ total 5.6 GWe‚ by 2020. * Construction of the first unit started in July 2012. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) was founded in 1971‚ comprising seven states including

beginning of a nuclear age. The original purpose of nuclear energy was to be used as a tool of massive destruction; as demonstrated on Japan in WWII. Once the power of nuclear energy was realized‚ people started to advocate for its potential for good in order to assist humanity. It was put at the top of many political agendas for an improved future. After WWII the dream for many became a reality‚ slowly but surely nuclear power plants started to develop around the world. Using nuclear energy as
