Engineered systems built around nuclear fission or fusion: reactors, containment and cooling systems, and the instrumentation systems built specifically for a nuclear facility. Belongs here: a named reactor design or nuclear facility system considered as a complete engineered system. Does not belong here: general electrical generation and transmission equipment downstream of a reactor that carries no nuclear-specific engineering, grouped under Electrical Engineering, or a radiation-measuring instrument used outside a nuclear-facility context.
