Abstract:

What security implications do North Korea's purported peaceful space activities have? North Korea's recent launch of a reconnaissance satellite not only raises concerns about its nuclear weapons program but also has broader implications for international security. The nuclear threat posed by North Korea is certainly growing. However, there seems to be an overlooked security threat in North Korea's space initiative: the threat of militarization and weaponization of outer space. Therefore, the security policy toward North Korea must be changed comprehensively to address the militarization and we

Abstract:

Poland, when acceded to GTRI (Global Threat Reduction Initiative) in 2004, has committed to convert the nuclear fuel of the Research Reactor MARIA, operated by the National Centre for Nuclear Research (NCBJ) in Świerk. The conversion means giving up of high enriched uranium fuel containing 36% of U-235, which was used so far, and replacing it with the low enriched uranium fuel (19.7% U-235). This article describes the potential usability of the Integrated Risk Informed Decision Making (IRIDM) methodology in optimization of the fuel conversion procedure.

The nuclear crisis on the Korean Peninsula has been a challenge to international peace and security for years. The first crisis began in 1993, when North Korea stated intent to withdraw from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, which it signed in December 1985. The North Korean decision was in response to a demand for special inspections by the International Atomic Energy Agency and a demand for unrestricted access to North Korea’s all nuclear facilities at any time. Following former President Jimmy Carter’s 1994 peacekeeping mission to Pyongyang, the so-called Framework Agreement was eventua

Abstract:

This article focuses on the evolving India-US military nexus and its impact on Pakistan's security. Using theoretical frameworks of realism, it explains how this partnership has bolstered India's military capabilities, posed significant security threats to Pakistan, and enhanced India's capability for proxy warfare. These developments have created a precarious security environment for Pakistan, contributing to a regional security dilemma and supporting India's emergence as a regional hegemon. The analysis highlights the role of advanced defense agreements, technology transfers, and joint milit

The major residual structure that remains associated with the nuclear envelope following extraction of isolated nuclei or oocyte germinal vesicles with non-ionic detergents, nucleases and high salt is the lamina (Fawcett, 1966; Aaronson and Blobel, 1975; Dwyer and Blobel, 1976). The nuclear lamina is composed of intermediate filament proteins, termed lamins (Gerace and Blobel, 1980; Shelton et al., 1980), which polymerise to form a basket-weave lattice of fibrils, which covers the entire inner surface of the nuclear envelope and interlinks nuclear pores (Aebi et al., 1986; Stewart and Whytock,

Abstract:

The ongoing war in Ukraine has significantly raised concerns about the safety of nuclear power plants (NPPs), especially in the context of the Zaporizhzhia NPP. This precarious situation has revealed substantial weaknesses in the existing global nuclear safety framework, emphasizing the need for sweeping reforms in international law. While the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) has played a commendable role in advocating for nuclear safety through various resolutions, missions, and safety principles, the effectiveness of these efforts is compromised by Russia’s non-compliance and its ab

Abstract:

The main argument of this paper is that the balance of ground forces on the Korean Peninsula should no longer be studied solely through the 'military components' approach, which often involves narrow quantification. Instead, an evaluation based on asymmetry is necessary. The key research question of this paper is: Who holds superiority in ground forces on the Korean Peninsula? This study employs both quantitative and qualitative research within the overarching assessment methodology to address this core question. Additionally, it aims to present an objective comparison of the threats and exami

Abstract:

Nuclearization of South Asia always remains the most imperative concern for the international community particularly when In May 1998, India and Pakistan tested their nuclear devices which plunged South Asia into a relentless nuclear arms race. Since then, the nuclearization of South Asia has been a reality but the region is as insecure as it was before. Historically, Pakistan’s nuclear program has been a subject of contention with the Western world. Pakistan has worked hard and successfully to build diverse nuclear capabilities. It will preserve these capabilities for the predictable future a

Abstract Hanna Jameson’s post-apocalyptic detective novel, The Last (2019), addresses contemporary issues that affect us on both a collective and an individual level. The author diagnoses the denial of nuclearism and calls for an awareness of the nuclear age combined with the looming threat of climate change. The novel negotiates alternative strategies for the treatment of crisis brought about by the nuclear attack and borrows many of the thematic and structural elements from twentieth-century nuclear fictions in which the apocalypse is not necessarily regarded in negative terms but as a chanc

Abstract:

Abstract Ribonucleotides represent a threat to DNA genome stability and transmission. Two types of Ribonuclease H (RNase H) excise ribonucleotides when they form part of the DNA strand, or hydrolyse RNA when it base-pairs with DNA in structures termed R-loops. Loss of either RNase H is lethal in mammals, whereas yeast survives the absence of both enzymes. RNase H1 loss is tolerated by the parasite Trypanosoma brucei but no work has examined the function of RNase H2. Here we show that loss of T. brucei RNase H2 (TbRH2A) leads to growth and cell cycle arrest that is concomitant with accumulation

Abstract:

Combustion caused by hydrogen-dominated combustible gas mixtures presents critical threats to nuclear safety during severe accidents in nuclear power plants, primarily due to their propensity for flame acceleration, deflagration, and subsequent detonation. Although the direct initiation of detonation from localized hydrogen accumulation at critical concentrations remains challenging, flame acceleration can induce rapid pressure escalation and lead to deflagration-to-detonation transition under suitable conditions. The ultra-high-pressure loads generated almost instantaneously will pose serious

Plant cells are continually exposed to a variety of microbes, with viral infections standing out as a major agricultural challenge. Viruses often undermine plant defenses, posing a significant threat to the productivity of crucial crops and global food security. Plant viruses, due to their limited coding capacity, heavily rely on the host cell machinery during infection, interacting with numerous host proteins. Given the absence of translation-required components in viral genomes, plant viruses have evolved strategies to manipulate the host protein synthesis machinery for viral protein product
