What is Nuclear Technology
 Nuclear Technology is an innovation that includes the atomic responses 
of nuclear cores. 
 Among the outstanding atomic innovations are atomic reactors, atomic 
drug and atomic weapons. 
 It is additionally utilized, in addition to other things, in smoke alarms and 
firearm sights.
History
 In 1896, Henri Becquerel discovered a new phenomenon which came to be 
called radioactivity while investigating phosphorescence in uranium salts.
 Along with Curie couple they all invented Radium.
 In such days alpha, beta and gamma were also discovered.
 Importance of radioactive decay was published and well acknowledged.
Some related terms
 Nuclear Fission:
Nuclear Fission is a nuclear reaction in which a heavy nucleus splits 
spontaneously or impact with another particle, releasing huge source of 
energy.
 Nuclear Fusion:
Nuclear Fusion is a response where at least two nuclear cores are joined to 
shape at least one distinctive nuclear cores and subatomic particles.

Uses
Nuclear Power
 The 1st power station to deliver power by utilizing heat from the parting 
of uranium molecules started working during the 1950s. 
 Today a great many people know about the significant commitment 
atomic vitality makes in giving a critical extent of clean power.
Medical applications
 Two categories are:
 Diagnostics 
 Radiation treatment
Oil and Gas Exploration
 Atomic well logging is utilized to help anticipate the business 
reasonability of new or existing wells. 
 The innovation includes the utilization of a neutron or gamma-beam 
source and a radiation indicator which are brought into boreholes down 
to decide the properties of the encompassing rock, for example, porosity 
and lithography.
Drawbacks
 Nuclear accidents are very dangerous, because of the powerful forces 
and energy radiation.
 Even people have died from a plastic anemia which resulted from high 
levels of exposure to nuclear energy. For an instance: Marie Curie’s 
death, military accidents, power plant workers.
 Safety measures are hence must for working on such technologies.
