Physics - Nuclear Physics, Lesson 5: Transmutation

Describes the disintegration and transmutation of atomic nuclei produced by high energy atomic particles from typical accelerators. Discusses neutron disintegration and the discovery of mesons.-EB PHYSICS - NUCLEAR PHYSICS, LESSON 6: INSIDE THE NUCLEUS AND FISSION 30 minutes 7892 Describes the binding forces between nucleons; the nuclear barrier and potential well model of nuclei; and the transuranic elements. Uses a working mechanical model of nuclear potential barrier to demonstrate nuclear capture of high energy particles.
