Nuclear energy is energy derived from the controlled release of nuclear transformation of materials, generally the decay of unstable neutrons during fission or fusion of atoms; therefore, this newest edition will continue the tradition of offering a holistic treatment of everything the undergraduate engineering student needs to know in a clear, concise overview of nuclear physics and chemistry, from the behavior of is ER -
