A nuclear weapon is an explosive device that derives its destructive force from nuclear reactions, either fission or a combination of fission and fusion. Both reactions release vast quantities of energy from relatively small amounts of matter. The first fission bomb test released the same amount of energy as approximately 20,000 tons of TNT. The first thermonuclear bomb test released the same amount of energy as approximately 10,000,000 tons of TNT.

Nuclear medicine is a medical speciality involving the application of radioactive substances in the diagnosis and treatment of disease. Nuclear medicine scans are usually conducted by radiographer. Nuclear medicine, in a sense, is "radiology done inside out" or "endoradiology" because it records radiation emitting from within the body rather than radiation that is generated by external sources like X-Rays.

Nuclear power is the use of nuclear reactions that release nuclear energy to generate heat, which most frequently is then used in steam turbines to produce electricity in a nuclear power station. The term includes nuclear fission, nuclear decay and nuclear fusion. Presently, the nuclear fission of elements in the actinide series of the periodic table produce the vast majority of nuclear energy in the direct service of humankind, with nuclear decay processes, primarily in the form of geothermal energy, and radioscopic thermoelectric generators in niche uses making up the rest.

Hey there Navneet, I read your article and it surprises me to see the vast outreach of nuclear chemistry in medicine.

My question is do you think it should be legal to allow human experimentation to further advance medicine ?

Jay you had an interesting read too

My question to you is, do you still see nuclear power as a viable alternative after the huge disaster in Japan

NAVNEET

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-09-25 17:48:58 UTC

Hello guys read articles from both of you and gained immense knowledge

Shreyash I will reiterate the classic question to you, that whether nuclear weapons are boon or bane ?

Jay I would like to question you on the feasibility of nuclear energy and returns on its investments ?

JAY

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-09-25 17:51:31 UTC

JAY superb articles guys.Definitely recommendable

My doubts about Navneets article are whether nuclear medicine is 100% safe or not ?

To Shreyash my doubts are whether nuclear weapons are procurable by terrorist organizations

SHREYASH

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-09-25 17:57:56 UTC

Thanks for the feedback guys.

Well Navneet your queries are pretty genuine but my answer remains the same that it depends on the person who has procured it

Well Jay I can assure you that all countries have their best soldiers as defenders of their nuclear arsenal

NAVNEET

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-09-25 18:00:40 UTC

Hello there guys

Well Shreyash there is a reason as to why man is a social animal so yeah human experimentation should NEVER be allowed

Jay as every other medical procedure there is no certainty in it's safety but I can say that as medical Science advances so will the success percentage

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-09-25 18:03:39 UTC

Well thanks for reading the article guys

Well Shreyash there are always 2 sides to a coin so yeah nuclear power is dangerous but the upsides heavily weigh down the downsides

Navneet I will like to give you the example of France where majority of the power is provided by Nuclear power stations so it does prove its feasibility and return on investment

Hey guys if you are further interested in knowing how I got the knowledge I used Google :P guess I am not a hardworker

NAVNEET

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-09-25 18:16:12 UTC

Well I too didn't try much my sources were journals and YouTube

JAY

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-09-25 18:16:43 UTC

Guess I tried the hardest my knowledge was mostly based on our library books and jou

SHREYASH HERE IS MY QUESTIONNAIRE

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-10-01 18:12:54 UTC

1.What is the source of power in nuclear weapons ?

2.When was the first nuclear test carried out?

3.What are the effects of a nuclear explosion?

4.Which is the first city to denounce nuclear weapons?

5.How many times over can the world be destroyed by the current stockpile of nukes ?

SHREYASH

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-10-05 15:11:55 UTC

Here are my list of uses of nuclear weapons

1.The classic M.A.D. theory I.e. mutually assured destruction, preventing nuclear powers from going to war against one another.

2.As a substitute for rocket fuel

3.Mining

NAVNEET

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-10-05 15:17:47 UTC

This is my proposed list of uses

1.Chemotherapy

2.Radiology

3.Tumor detection

JAY

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-10-05 15:19:31 UTC

Here are my proposed uses

1.Nuclear power

2.Suitable alternative to renewable energy

NAVNEET-CONCLUSION

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-10-06 16:16:37 UTC

As we have seen in earlier discussions that nuclear chemistry has a widespread use. And use of that in medicine is of zenith importance. Since it had been used for a long period of time and now its use at its peak.
Over 10000 hospital use it worldwide. 90% of of the procedures are for diagnosis.
So here we see that its use is increasing exponentially.
In coming days its use will grow farther fields.

SHREYASH-CONCLUSION

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-10-06 16:36:52 UTC

I would like to conclude by saying that nuclear weapons are both boon and bane ,depending upon user.

In a good person's hand they can fill the world with superb sources of controlled power.

In a bad persons hand they can fill the world with nuclear fallout :-).

JA

shreyash_mishra19 — 2015-10-06 16:44:09 UTC

I conclude that nuclear power is the only viable step forward,not only is it almost renewable but also doesn't produce much toxic waste.

Other concerns regarding safety can be discerned when compared with the benefits.
