What is Nuclear Energy? The Science of Nuclear Power | IAEA
Nuclear energy is a form of energy released from the nucleus, the core of atoms, made up of protons and neutrons. This source of energy can be produced in two ways: fission – when nuclei of atoms split into several parts – or fusion – when nuclei fuse together. The nuclear energy harnessed around the world today to produce electricity

Nuclear Energy
Vocabulary. Nuclear energy is the energy in the nucleus, or core, of an atom. Atoms are tiny units that make up all matter in the universe, and energy is what holds the nucleus together. There is a huge amount of energy in an atom ''s dense nucleus. In fact, the power that holds the nucleus together is officially called the " strong force ."
