Radiation litigation , the cleanup and decommissioning of nuclear facilities , radon exposure , nuclear medicine , food irradiation , stricter regulatory climate - - these are some of the reasons health physics and radiation protection professionals are increasingly called upon to upgrade their skills . Historically , nuclear weapon detonation safety has been assured using a unique principle-based design approach . That proteins , vitamins , carbohydrates , minerals , etc. explain the basis of human nutrition , and that electromagnetism and atomic , nuclear , and particle physics explain much of the fundamental behavior of matter , are not just things that escaped Hume 's imagination - - they escaped everyone 's imagination until the discovery of them was effected - - but they are things that occupy a cognitive space whose very existence Hume explicitly denied : They do not correspond to " impressions " any more than God or the soul do . From a risk-risk perspective , from an economic perspective , nuclear energy is now back on the table , and even the socially responsible investment community , which has , as one of its founding tenets an absolute opposition to nuclear energy , is deep into debate about whether it might reverse or at least publicly soften its opposition to nuclear energy . Research areas to be addressed in 2007 include accelerator physics , astrophysics , chemical sciences , climate research , computer science , engineering physics , environmental science , fusion energy , life sciences , materials science , nuclear physics and nuclear engineering .
