Nuclear Physics

Nuclear physics is the field of physics that studies the building blocks and interactions of atomic nuclei. It is a sub-field of atomic physics, which studies the building blocks and interactions of individual atoms. Nuclear physics plays a major role in our understanding of the physical world and in the development of technologies that help provide energy, medicine, and innovative materials. By better understanding the fundamental processes of nuclear physics, we can develop new technologies and materials to serve humanity. Nuclear physics has enabled us to develop power plants to generate energy, treatments for cancer, and new materials for our daily lives.
