Nuclear physics is the branch of physics that studies the atomic nucleus, its constituents, and the interactions that govern its behavior. The field explores the fundamental forces that operate within the nucleus, particularly the strong nuclear force that binds protons and neutrons together, as well as the weak nuclear force that governs radioactive decay. Understanding the structure and dynamics of the nucleus provides insights into the origin of matter and the processes that drive the universe's evolution, including stellar nucleosynthesis and the formation of elements.

The history of nuclear physics began with the discovery of radioactivity by Henri Becquerel in 1896, followed by the identification of the electron by J.J. Thomson in 1897. The groundbreaking work of Ernest Rutherford in the early 20th century led to the discovery of the atomic nucleus, fundamentally altering the understanding of atomic structure. Rutherford’s gold foil experiment in 1911 demonstrated that atoms consist of a small, dense nucleus surrounded by a cloud of electrons. James Chadwick’s discovery of the neutron in 1932 further clarified the composition of the nucleus and laid the foundation for modern nuclear physics.

Nuclear physics encompasses several key areas of study, including nuclear structure, nuclear reactions, and nuclear decay. Nuclear structure focuses on understanding how protons and neutrons are arranged within the nucleus and how the strong nuclear force governs their interactions. Quantum mechanics plays a central role in modeling the energy levels and configurations of nucleons. Nuclear reactions involve the collision of nuclei, leading to the formation of new elements or the release of energy, as observed in nuclear fission and fusion. Nuclear decay describes the spontaneous transformation of unstable nuclei into more stable configurations, often accompanied by the emission of alpha, beta, or gamma radiation.
