radioactive decay system
Radiative Decay Radiative decay is a process of decay of a particle into two lower-energy particles, in which energy is released in a form of electromagnetic radiation, or photons. It is one of the primary modes of decay for unstable particles. Radiative decay is often the product of an unstable ......

super plutonium
+ Plutonium was discovered in 1940 by Dr. Glenn T. Seaborg and his researchers at Berkeley, California. Plutonium is a manmade synthetic element, meaning that it does not occur naturally in the environment. While it can be found in uranium deposits, such as those from mines, plutonium is created i......

Actinides
The actinide series of elements are a group of 15 elements in the periodic table. They are found in period 7, at channels 89 to 103 in the periodic table. The actinides are all very similar in their chemical and physical properties; however, they have several key differences that set them apart fr......

It is composed of the elements zirconium, carbon, and chlorine, and has the chemical formula ZrCO3Cl. It is a white powder that is virtually insoluble in w......
Lithium isotope separation
Lithium isotope separation Lithium isotope separation is the process of separating lithium atoms of different masses. It is used for a variety of scientific and industrial applications, including manufacture of pharmaceuticals, research, nuclear energy production, and materials analysis. It can a......
fission product
Nuclear fission Nuclear fission is a process in which a nucleus, such as that of an atom, is split into two or more parts, each of which carries a fraction of the original atomic nucleuss charge and mass. This process is used in many applications — from electricity generation to nuclear weapons ......
Uranium Zirconium Alloy
Depletion of energy resources and rapid industrial development has heightened awareness of the problems of society’s dependence on fossil fuels and the need to explore alternative energies. Nuclear energy is seen as one of the most promising options for replacing fossil fuels. To provide a potent......
neutron fluence
Although all atoms contain protons, neutrons, and electrons, some may contain different quantities of these particles. Atoms with an unequal number of protons and neutrons are called isotopes. One particular isotope, known as neutronium, is an atom with no protons or electrons. This means it consi......
Nuclear Properties of Graphite
Introduction Graphite, with the chemical symbol C and atomic number 6, is one of the most common elements in the universe. Known for its softness and electrical properties, graphite has been used in many applications across industries, ranging from refractory linings and lubricants to electrical ......
