Essays on Nuclear Weapon

The potential that came with various discoveries in atomic physics in the early twentieth century had a lasting impact on the face of the world. The discovery of nuclear fission paved the way for the world's first nuclear weapons experience. The bombing of Japan in World War II resulted in...

Nuclear bombs are still a source of contention today. Despite the fact that some may regard them as a regrettable relic or remnant of the Cold War. Nuclear-weapons states are clinging to them as tightly as they can, inventing new designs and functions for them. They've also proposed tiny arms...

Study on the characteristics of radioactivity and how to create a nuclear fission mechanism began in Europe and North America in the 1930's. This research, undertaken in Canada, the United States, Poland, France, Italy, Germany and England by different teams, was to be included later in the Manhattan Project. Before...

The global science community heard early in 1939 that German physicists had discovered the splitting of a uranium atom; there was concern about the possibility that Nazi scientists could cause widespread destruction by using the energy to produce explosives. Scientists Albert Einstein, who survived Nazi persecution, and Enrico Fermi, who...
