Abstract

The present chapter deals with the analysis and relationship of significant features of theoretical nuclear physics. It is perhaps the most widely adopted chapter on the subject. The authors' line of understanding is subjected to “the theoretical perceptions, approaches, and deliberations formulated to infer the investigational matter and spread our aptitude to calculate and govern nuclear occurrences.” The present chapter elaborates on the features of conjectural nuclear physics. Its attention is classified agreeing to occurrences concerning nuclear fission, transition state (saddle point) and scission point, photo−fission, fissile materials and fertile materials, moderation and thermalization of the neutron, neutron transport in the matter, nuclear fusion and basic reaction for energy generation in the sun by fusion.
