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

that can be met by conventional energy sources. The solution to long term energy source is the nuclear powered batteries which have a life span of few decades and can pack in energy densities thousands of time greater than conventional battery sources. Hence‚ there is an urgent need to harvest enormous amount of energy released naturally by the tiny bits of radioactive material. Unlike conventional nuclear power generating devices‚ these batteries do not rely on the fission or fusion reactions and

Iran’s Nuclear Program “…Look at it in the totality of the picture. And the picture is you ’ve got undeclared …nuclear activity‚ deliberate misinformation on nuclear activity‚ development of delivery systems‚ and other technical research that‚ added all up‚ paints a very troubling picture.” (Ereli‚ 2004). These remarks‚ given by J. Adam Ereli‚ a State Department Deputy Spokesman‚ sums up the nuclear program and intentions of Iran. Although on multiple occasions Iran declared their nuclear development

Nuclear energy originates from the splitting of uranium atoms in a process called fission. At the power plant‚ the fission process is used to generate heat for producing steam‚ which is used by a turbine to generate electricity. Nuclear energy usually means the part of the energy of an atomic nucleus‚ which can be released by fusion or fission or radioactive decay. What are the Benefits of Nuclear Energy Nuclear energy is the world’s largest source of emission-free energy. Nuclear power plants

after the second World War some countries have revised their nuclear weapons programme‚ nuclear weapons still today are considered to be an established currency of politics and security. While the nuclear weapons states have agreed on a legally binding commitment to nuclear disarmament‚ they continue to rely heavily on such weapons in their security doctrines and continue to invest and modernise their arsenals. The way towards nuclear disarmament has many different paths and there are several approaches
