Mass-energy equivalence — formula?
E=mc^2
Nuclear binding — role?
Keeps nucleons together in nucleus.
Mass defect — definition?
Difference between nucleon sum and nucleus mass.
Deuterium nucleus — composition?
One proton and one neutron.
Alpha decay — energy release?
Energy from mass change via E=Δm c^2.
Nuclear fusion — process?
Light nuclei combine into heavier nucleus.
Chain reaction — key factor?
Number of neutrons triggering further fissions.
Mass defect — calculation?
Δm = m_particles - m_nucleus.
Deuterium binding energy — calculation?
Convert Δm into energy using E=Δm c^2.
Fission reaction — example?
U-235 absorbs neutron, splits into smaller nuclei.
Fusion reaction — example?
H-2 + H-3 → He-4 + neutron.
Chain reaction — control?
Regulated by neutron moderation and multiplication factor.
