Nuclear Energy 1. What is nuclear energy? Text Book Pg 80 2. Nuclear Fission :- In nuclear physics and nuclear chemistry‚ nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction in which the nucleus of an atom splits into smaller parts (lighter nuclei)‚ often producing free neutrons and photons (in the form of gamma rays)‚ and releasing a tremendous amount of energy. The two nuclei produced are most often of comparable size‚ typically with a mass ratio around 3:2 for common fissile isotopes.[1][2].The smallest

Nuclear engineering is a wide field that covers important subjects of study from the disposal of nuclear fuel and waste to the maintenance of systems such as nuclear reactors‚ plants‚ and even weapons (Shiori‚ “Nuclear Engineering Education”). Although the amount of advances has been minimal over the years‚ nuclear engineering is still a stable field of study and necessary for a highly civilized country to

Nuclear energy… Boon or Bane ? Nuclear energy? Nowadays these two words are always sticking on the society’s mouth‚ but do they know the actual meaning of it? Nuclear energy is basically defined as the energy released by the reaction within the nuclei‚ as in nuclear fission or fusion. The core reason of using nuclear energy is to generate electric power to satisfy human needs. Usage of the nuclear power plant as an energy generator came together with several boons and banes.
