INTRODUCTORY TO NUCLEAR SCIENCE
This course is an expository course for the Nuclear Science Programme undergraduate to understand qualitatively and quantitatively concepts of atoms and radioactivity. This course covers the structure of atoms, the composition of the nucleus, and nuclear stability. Explanation of the nuclear decay process involving kinetic energies, decay energies, the equilibrium of decay series, and half-lives will be given. The types of nuclear reactions that can be studied in the laboratory and that occurring in the Sun and stellar bodies and some introductory nuclear astrophysics will be given. A brief discussion on the principles of the nuclear reactor and nuclear power will be given to enhance the understanding of the use of nuclear technology.
