Difference between Atomic number and Nuclear physics

Atomic number vs. Nuclear physics

The atomic number or proton number (symbol Z) of a chemical element is the number of protons found in the nucleus of an atom. Nuclear physics is the field of physics that studies atomic nuclei and their constituents and interactions.

Similarities between Atomic number and Nuclear physics

Atomic number and Nuclear physics have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Atom, Atomic nucleus, Atomic number, Electron, Ernest Rutherford, Hydrogen, Isotope, James Chadwick, Quantum mechanics.

Atom

An atom is the smallest constituent unit of ordinary matter that has the properties of a chemical element.

Quantum mechanics

Quantum mechanics (QM; also known as quantum physics, quantum theory, the wave mechanical model, or matrix mechanics), including quantum field theory, is a fundamental theory in physics which describes nature at the smallest scales of energy levels of atoms and subatomic particles.
