It serves as a readable and reliable source of information for anyone who wants to have a well-balanced opinion about exploitation of nuclear fission in power plants. The text is divided into two parts; the first covers the basics of nuclear forces and properties of nuclei, nuclear collisions, nuclear stability, radioactivity, and provides a detailed discussion of nuclear fission and relevant topics in its application to energy production. The second part covers the basic technical aspects of nuclear fission reactors, nuclear fuel cycle and resources, safety, safeguards, and radioactive waste management. The book also contains a discussion of the biological effects of nuclear radiation and of radiation protection, and a summary of the ten most relevant nuclear accidents. The book is suitable for undergraduates in physics, nuclear engineering and other science subjects. However, the mathematics is kept at a level that can be easily followed by wider circles of readers. The addition of solved problems, strategically placed throughout the text, and the collections of problems at the end of the chapters allow readers to appreciate the quantitative aspects of various phenomena and processes. Many illustrations and graphs effectively supplement the text and help visualising specific points. 000756134 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed June 28, 2016). 000756134 650_0 $$aNuclear energy. 000756134 650_0 $$aNuclear fission. 000756134 7001_ $$aMonti, Stefano,$$eauthor. 000756134 7001_ $$aRipani, Marco,$$eauthor. 000756134 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319306490 000756134 830_0 $$aUndergraduate lecture notes in physics. 000756134 852__ $$bebk 000756134 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-30651-3$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000756134 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:756134$$pGLOBAL_SET 000756134 980__ $$aEBOOK 000756134 980__ $$aBIB 000756134 982__ $$aEbook 000756134 983__ $$aOnline 000756134 994__ $$a92$$bISE
