The energy required to separate particles which are bound by electromagnetic or nuclear forces (infinitely far apart). In the case of the nucleus of an atom, these particles are protons and neutrons h [..]

The energy that holds the particles in the nucleus of an atom together. It is this energy, when released, that is used to generate nuclear power.

The minimum energy required to separate the nucleus of an atom into its component neutrons and protons.

The total binding energy of a nucleus is the energy required to separate it into its constituent neutrons and protons. Conversely, when neutrons and protons are combined to form nuclei, energy equal i [..]

The energy required to either separate an electron from an atom or to separate the protons and neutrons of an atomic nucleus.

Energy that must be applied to a nucleus to break it up.

(physics) the energy needed to separate the constituent parts of an atom or nucleus; equivalent to the mass defect

The energy required to break a nucleus into its constituent protons and neutrons; also the energy equivalent released when a nucleus is formed

(n.) Energy derived from the conversion of mass to energy when neutrons and protons are combined to form nuclei.

The energy necessary to separate a combined system. In particular the energy to separate a molecular binding. Atoms combine to a chemical binding (molecules) because they find a lower energy level in the molecular binding than in the atomic stadium. The reason is, that valence electrons of one atom which are on a not completed maximum energy level [..]

Energy that holds nucleus' neutrons and protons together.

of an atomic nucleus. The energy holding a nucleus together, balancing the attraction of the strong nuclear (attractive) force and the electrical repulsion of a large number of positive protons, confi [..]
