This textbook
will stimulate the interest of students in nuclear reactor theory and help them
to master the topic within a short period of time. This textbook is composed of
two parts. Part 1, Elements of Nuclear Reactor Theory, is composed of only
elements but the main resource for the lecture of nuclear reactor theory, and
should be studied as common knowledge. Part 2, Reactor Analysis is aimed to
cover all areas of reactor physics and contains detailed descriptions.
This note deals with key issues of fusion reactor technologies based
on magnetic confinement, focusing on the tokamak concept. Overview of the fusion
power plant system will be introduced and energetics of which will be addressed.
Then, the way how to build and operate a tokamak is going to be covered.
This
note is intended to provide a broad understanding of how different types of
radiation deposit energy, including the creation and behavior of secondary
radiations; of how radiation affects cells and why the different types of
radiation have very different biological effects. Also explains the effects of
radiation on biological systems including DNA damage, in vitro cell survival
models and in vivo mammalian systems.
This note explains correctly the major
ideas associated with Nuclear Chemistry listed below, to work numerical problems
involving these concepts and to extend the use of these concepts to unknown
situations.
This book explains the basic
principles of nuclear chemistry at the level of undergraduate college students
who has some familiarity with scientific concepts and terminology.
