Uranium
Uranium

... is the reason uranium still exists on the Earth. Three additional isotopes of uranium are not naturally present but can be produced by nuclear transformations. These are uranium-232, uranium-233, and uranium-236. Like the natural uranium isotopes, these three also decay by emitting an alpha particle ...

... Nuclear fission is a nuclear reaction in which a heavy nucleus (such as uranium) splits into two or more, lighter nuclei. As this splitting (transmutation) occurs, new, smaller / different isotopes are produced and there is a release of energy. The release of energy occurs whenever new nuclei are ma ...

Nuclear fuel cycle

The nuclear fuel cycle, also called nuclear fuel chain, is the progression of nuclear fuel through a series of differing stages. It consists of steps in the front end, which are the preparation of the fuel, steps in the service period in which the fuel is used during reactor operation, and steps in the back end, which are necessary to safely manage, contain, and either reprocess or dispose of spent nuclear fuel. If spent fuel is not reprocessed, the fuel cycle is referred to as an open fuel cycle (or a once-through fuel cycle); if the spent fuel is reprocessed, it is referred to as a closed fuel cycle.
