This book explores the often underappreciated domain of nuclear data. In doing so, it covers a range of different industrial and societal applications, starting with the emerging domain of nuclear fusion before discussing several different aspects where nuclear data is important to nuclear fission energy and the nuclear fuel cycle. Lastly, the book covers topics related to medical isotope production. The introductory chapter provides an overview of key topics in nuclear structure, nuclear reaction theory and nuclear data evaluation which underpin the other chapters.
This book will interest final year undergraduate students and PhD students with a background in physics. It will also interest those beginning their career in the nuclear industry.
Key Features:
* Describes nuclear data for applications explained starting from the basics * Contributors are leading experts and practitioners in the field * Extensive use of case studies
