Bozeman Science: Conservation of Nucleon Number

Curated by ACT

In the following video Paul Andersen explains how the nucleon number and charge is conserved in all nuclear reactions and radioactive decay. Fission, fusion, alpha decay, beta decay, and gamma decay all conserve the number of neutrons and protons, as well as charge. [8:27]
