Parent topics
- Nuclear reactor [r]: A unit or vessel, including associated equipment and material, in which nuclear reactions take place, generally controlled nuclear fission chain reactions. [e]
- Nuclear fission chain reaction [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Nuclear physics [r]: A branch of the science of physics involving nuclei of atoms, sub-atomic particles, and any reactions involving them. [e]
- Nuclear engineering [r]: The field of engineering whose main focus is to use the energy provided by nuclear fission or fusion for practical purposes. [e]
- Neutron [r]: An elementary particle of neutral charge, normally found in the nucleus of chemical elements, but having significant effects when in free flight; the number of neutrons in the nucleus of an element defines its identity as an isotope [e]
Subtopics
- Moderator (nuclear) [r]: Materials, in nuclear engineering, that reduce the flow of particles or electromagnetic radiation [e]
- Nuclear reactor coolant [r]: A fluid that flows through a nuclear reactor absorbing heat produced by nuclear reactions inside, essentially nuclear fission chain reaction and decay of radioactive fission products. This fluid can be liquid, gas, or liquid converting to gas (boiling). [e]
