This module gives a brief overview of basics of nuclear physics, neutron slowing down, neutron transport, neutron diffusion, reactor kinetics and fuel depletion using python as a tool for the analysis ...

Nuclear physics is the branch of science that examines the properties and behaviour of atomic nuclei, the densely packed assemblies of protons and neutrons held together by the strong interaction.

Nuclear physics is a research area focused on the structure, dynamics, and interactions of atomic nuclei and their constituent nucleons, governed primarily by the strong and weak nuclear forces within ...
