Nuclear Theory

Nuclear Theory is a subfield of theoretical physics that specifically investigates the structure, interactions, and dynamics of atomic nuclei through the application of quantum mechanics and fundamental forces, distinguishing it from other domains by its focus on nuclear rather than atomic or subnuclear phenomena.
