Nuclear chemistry is the branch of chemistry that focuses on nuclear processes, radioactivity, and the transformations occurring within atomic nuclei. Key areas of study in this field include nuclear transmutation, nuclear properties, and the behavior of radioactive elements such as actinides, radium, and radon. This field also examines the equipment used to carry out nuclear processes and investigates the chemical effects of radiation absorption in living organisms, plants, and other materials. Major subfields within nuclear chemistry include radiation chemistry, nuclear power, and nuclear reactions. This book outlines the processes and applications of nuclear chemistry in detail. It attempts to understand the multiple branches that fall under this discipline and how such concepts have practical applications. This book, with its detailed analyses and data, will prove immensely beneficial to professionals and students involved in this area at various levels.
