一、課程說明(Course Desc<x>ription) 
<br>This is a core course provided for students to establish their speciality in nuclear engineering. 
<br>In addition to the associated atomic and nuclear physics, the mechanisms of the interaction of 
<br>radiation with matter will be reviewed. Concepts of the structures of a nuclear reactor will be 
<br>introduced. Students are expected to understand the properties of neutron diffusion and 
<br>moderation. Moreover, fundamentals of the nuclear reactor theory and the reactor kinetics will 
<br>be investigated.
