Analyzes the total cross section data for nuclear fission, covering energy dependence, transport, reactions, uncertainties, fission fragments, and radiological hazards.
Explores nuclear fuel, energy density, reactivity, and fission cross-sections for isotopes, as well as the characteristics of desirable nuclear fuel elements.
Explores breeding and liquid metal fast reactors, focusing on the challenges of managing plutonium, transmutation to reduce nuclear waste, and the use of liquid metal cooling for reactor efficiency and safety.
Delves into the origin of chemical elements in the universe through nuclear astrophysics, exploring processes like Big Bang nucleosynthesis and stellar evolution.
Introduces Generation IV nuclear reactors, focusing on fast-spectrum reactors and their sustainability, breeding of fissile fuel, properties of coolants, historical development, advantages, disadvantages, and key challenges.
Explores the principles of radiation shielding using absorbing materials to reduce radiation exposure and covers topics such as radiation interaction mechanisms and Monte Carlo simulations.
