Nuclear physics investigates the properties and behavior of the central portion,
or nucleus, of the atom. This branch of physics had perhaps the biggest impact
on the world in the 20th century because it evolved into the knowledge used to
build the most destructive weapons people have ever known. The atomic bombs that
ended World War II, and the weapons race that followed, changed the course of
history. But applications of nuclear physics have also provided enormous energy
for useful purposes, generating about 16 percent of the world's electricity.
