AIP Conference Proceedings, 2011
The 104 nuclear plants operating in the US today are far safer than they were 20–30 years ago. For example, there's been about a 100‐fold reduction in the occurrence of “significant events” since the late 1970s. Although the youngest of currently operating US plants was designed in the 1970s, all have been significantly modified over the years.

Monthly Review, 2011
Monthly Review has long been on record as opposed to the expansion of nuclear energy. Most recently, some of the dangers of nuclear power, both in its present form and with continuing new technological developments, were spelled out by Robert D. Furber, James C. Warf, and Sheldon C. Plotkin of the Southern California Federation of Scientists, in their

Reviews of Modern Physics, 1999
The earliest speculations about nuclear power—first, about nuclear fusion— followed soon after the publication of Albert Einstein’s special theory of relativity. A story related by Edward Teller tells of the young George Gamow’s being offered, in 1929, the nightly use of the full electric power grid of Leningrad if he would undertake to create in the ...

Publisher Summary This chapter explains the terms, such as “proton,” “neutron,” “isotope,” “atomic number,” “mass number,” and “atomic mass unit”. The composition and the behavior of all ordinary matter depends on four basic units-electrons, protons, neutrons, and photons. The chapter describes the binding energy of a nucleus, and how the shape of the
