Nuclear pre-mRNA introns are often much longer than their surrounding exons.

Nuclear weapons are fearsome, but the long-range ballistic missile gives them a stealth and merciless swiftness which is much more terrifying.

Plans are in the reference Nuclear War Survival Skills by Cresson Kearny.

It recommends safety standards, but member states are not required to comply ; it promotes nuclear energy, but it also monitors nuclear use ; it is the sole global organization overseeing the nuclear energy industry, yet it is also weighed down by checking compliance with the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty ( NPT ).

Signature and ratification of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty ( NPT ) are not preconditions for membership in the IAEA.

Among the Laboratory's current major active projects are the Mars Science Laboratory mission ( which includes the Curiosity rover ), the Cassini – Huygens mission orbiting Saturn, the Mars Exploration Rovers ( Spirit and Opportunity ), the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, the Dawn mission to the dwarf planet Ceres and asteroid Vesta, the Juno spacecraft en route to Jupiter, the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory ( GRAIL ) mission to the Moon, the Nuclear Spectroscopic Telescope Array ( NuSTAR ) X-ray telescope, and the Spitzer Space Telescope.

Nuclear claims between the U. S. and the Marshall Islands are ongoing, and health effects from these nuclear tests linger.

Nuclear magnetic moments are important in other contexts, particularly in nuclear magnetic resonance ( NMR ) and magnetic resonance imaging ( MRI ).

In December 2011, Fraser was highly critical of the Australian government's decision ( also supported by the Liberal Party Opposition ) to permit the export of uranium to India, relaxing the Fraser government's policy of banning sales of uranium to countries that are not signatories of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

Nuclear pores are large protein complexes that cross the nuclear envelope, which is the double membrane surrounding the eukaryotic cell nucleus.

Nuclear reactions are thus driven by the mechanics of bombardment, not by the relatively constant exponential decay and half-life characteristic of spontaneous radioactive processes.

Nuclear fissions in fissile fuels are the result of the nuclear excitation energy produced when a fissile nucleus captures a neutron.

Nuclear fission of heavy elements produces energy because the specific binding energy ( binding energy per mass ) of intermediate-mass nuclei with atomic numbers and atomic masses close to < sup > 62 </ sup > Ni and < sup > 56 </ sup > Fe is greater than the nucleon-specific binding energy of very heavy nuclei, so that energy is released when heavy nuclei are broken apart.

Nuclear weapons are designed to operate under this state.

Nuclear reactors generally have automatic and manual systems to shut the fission reaction down if unsafe conditions are detected.

The former include the Advanced Boiling Water Reactor ( ABWR ), two of which are now operating with others under construction, and the planned passively safe Economic Simplified Boiling Water Reactor ( ESBWR ) and AP1000 units ( see Nuclear Power 2010 Program ).

Nuclear disarmament refers to both the act of reducing or eliminating nuclear weapons and to the end state of a nuclear-free world, in which nuclear weapons are completely eliminated.

Nuclear particles like protons and neutrons are not destroyed in fission and fusion processes, but collections of them have less mass than if they were individually free, and this mass difference is liberated as heat and radiation in nuclear reactions ( the heat and radiation have the missing mass, but it often escapes from the system, where it is not measured ).

Other opened issues are the implementation of the joint management of the Krško Nuclear Power Plant, the financial compensation for the Croatian depositors who lost their savings in the liquidation of the Slovenian-based Yugoslav bank Ljubljanska banka.

Nuclear magnetic resonance ( NMR ) spectroscopy is a widely used resonance method and ultrafast laser methods are also now possible in the infrared and visible spectral regions.

Reactor compartments are sealed at both ends and shipped by barge and multiple-wheel high-capacity trailers to the Department of Energy's Hanford Nuclear Reservation in Washington state, where they are currently in open dry storage and slated to be eventually buried.

* In The Simpsons episode " Homer at the Bat ", Homer Simpson is hit in the head by a pitch while playing for the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant softball team, rendering him unconscious, but forcing in the winning run.

The synthesis of bohrium was first attempted in 1976 by scientists at the Joint Institute for Nuclear Research at Dubna using this cold fusion reaction.

Nuclear magnetic resonance ( NMR ) is a technique by which external magnetic fields can be used to find resonance modes of individual electrons, thus giving information about the atomic, molecular and bond structure of their neighborhood.

* Nuclear cardiology: The use of nuclear medicine to visualize the uptake of an isotope by the heart using radioactive sources.

Biosphere's song Cygnus-A, The Mars Volta's song Cygnus .... Vismund Cygnus, the Cygnus X-1 duology by Rush, and throughout The Lonely Forest's concept album Nuclear Winter, all include references to Cygnus.

The Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament ( CND ) is an anti-nuclear organisation that advocates unilateral nuclear disarmament by the United Kingdom, international nuclear disarmament and tighter international arms regulation through agreements such as the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

B. Priestley on " Britain and the Nuclear Bombs ", which was critical of Aneurin Bevan for changing his mind about nuclear weapons and ceasing to advocate unilateral nuclear disarmament by Britain.

At the end of November, a meeting was held in the rooms of Canon John Collins, chaired by the editor of the New Statesman, Kingsley Martin, to launch the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament.

Qinshan Nuclear Power Plant | Qinshan Phase III Units 1 & 2, located in Zhejiang China ( 30. 436 N 120. 958 E ): Two CANDU 6 reactors, designed by Atomic Energy of Canada Limited ( AECL ), owned and operated by the Third Qinshan Nuclear Power Company Limited

More recent campaigning by anti-nuclear groups has related to several nuclear power plants including the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Power Plant, Indian Point Energy Center, Oyster Creek Nuclear Generating Station, Pilgrim Nuclear Generating Station, Salem Nuclear Power Plant, and Vermont Yankee Nuclear Power Plant.

However, since Einstein's death, experiments analogous to the one described in the EPR paper have been carried out, starting in 1976 by French scientists Lamehi-Rachti and Mittig at the Saclay Nuclear Research Centre.

* 1958 – The Peace symbol, commissioned by Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament in protest against the Atomic Weapons Research Establishment, is designed and completed by Gerald Holtom.

Nuclear magnetic resonance ( NMR ) is the name given to a physical resonance phenomenon involving the observation of specific quantum mechanical magnetic properties of an atomic nucleus in the presence of an applied, external magnetic field.

Nuclear weapons will only respond to a specific arming signal.

Nuclear pharmacists undergo additional training specific to handling radioactive materials, and unlike in community and hospital pharmacies, nuclear pharmacists typically do not interact directly with patients.

* DNA-binding domain, a protein motif that binds to specific sequences of DNA, in for example a Nuclear receptor

Nuclear medicine is a possible specialty for adapting to the new discipline of molecular medicine, because of its emphasis on function and its utilization of imaging agents that are specific for a particular disease process.

Nuclear medicine imaging studies are generally more organ or tissue specific ( e. g.: lungs scan, heart scan, bone scan, brain scan, etc.

As with many branches of MASINT, specific techniques may overlap with the six major conceptual disciplines of MASINT defined by the Center for MASINT Studies and Research, which divides MASINT into Electro-optical, Nuclear, Geophysical, Radar, Materials, and Radiofrequency disciplines.
