Atoms consist of a nucleus surrounded by electrons. Chemistry is produced by interactions involving the electrons around the atom. t. his involves small energy changes (~0.01 eV) and can happen at room temperatures. Presentation by Claire, Elesha, Fatima, Juhee and Lala. Knowledge Framework vs. Knowledge Structure. . Knowledge Framework (KF). Knowledge Structure (KS). . Way to organize knowledge so students can learn the language: “to learn through language and to learn about language”. on the Pathway to Fusion Energy. Mohamed Abdou .

Founding President. , Council of Energy Research and Education Leaders, CEREL (USA). WJEC Physics Unit 2 - 2.9. Nuclear Fusion. H – Deuterium nucleus. 2. 1. H – Deuterium nucleus. 2. 1. Two deuterium nuclei approach one another. The two nuclei collide. Nuclear Fusion. H –nucleus. 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.. The Sun produces energy in this manner.. Hydrogen bombs use this process.. Much more energy per gram is released by fusion than is by fission.. Fusion reactions create no radioactive waste . Unfortunately it is much harder to start and control a self sustaining reaction.. Town Hall Meeting. 20th ANS Topical Meeting on the Technology of Fusion Energy. Nashville, TN U.S.A..
