Learn about the basics of atomic and nuclear physics, the fields of science that study the structure and behavior of matter and its constituents. Find out how they are related, but not the same, and what are their main applications and challenges.
Nuclear physics is the field of physics that studies atomic nuclei and their constituents and interactions, in addition to the study of other forms of nuclear matter. Nuclear physics should not be confused with atomic physics, which studies the atom as a whole, including its electrons.
Physicists distinguish between atomic physics—which deals with the atom as a system consisting of a nucleus and electrons—and nuclear physics, which studies nuclear reactions and special properties of atomic nuclei.
Chapter 1: Fundamentals of Atomic and Nuclear Physics. Slide set of 44 slides based on the chapter authored by K. H. Ng and D. R. Dance of the IAEA publication (ISBN 978-92-0-131010-1): Diagnostic Radiology Physics: A Handbook for Teachers and Students. Objective:
A textbook that covers the basic concepts and principles of atomic and nuclear physics, with examples and applications. The third edition has been revised and updated to include topics such as charm, quarks, cosmic rays and fusion systems.
5 lis 2024 · Physics - Nuclear, Particles, Forces: This branch of physics deals with the structure of the atomic nucleus and the radiation from unstable nuclei. About 10,000 times smaller than the atom, the constituent particles of the nucleus, protons and neutrons, attract one another so strongly by the nuclear forces that nuclear energies are ...
