PPT-1 “ European Nuclear Science and Applications Research 2

ENSAR2 Muhsin N Harakeh Coordinator ENSAR2 on behalf of the ENSAR2 management group NuPECC Strategy Meeting 16 January 2016 Darmstadt Germany 2 ENSAR2 is the integrating activity IA for European nuclear scientists who are performing research in three of . Prior to its invention in 1932 the only known sources of particles that could induce nuclear reactions were the natural alpha particle emitters for example radium In fact the only type of nuclear reaction known during that period was that of an alph In nuclear science the concept of symmetry plays key role in gaining an understanding of the physical laws governing the behavior of matter It provides a shortcut based on geometry for getting at some of Natures innermost secrets Because the laws of 8.1 Nuclear Fission . - release of energy due to splitting of heavy elements into two parts. .

Enormous Energies. Nuclear Fission. Take a large atom and impact the nucleus with a particle. . Split the atom releasing high energy, more high energy neutrons, and two daughter nuclides.. Fission occurs only rarely in nature. Alpha decay is much more common.. A naturally . radioactive element . will . emit . energy without the absorption of energy from an outside source. . The nucleus of an element becomes radioactive because of an unstable ratio of protons to neutrons in the nucleus.. Stephen Croft (ORNL). Ramkumar Venkataraman (ORNL). Louise G. Worrall (ORNL).
