Summary
The European Union (EU) and Japan are enhancing security cooperation, particularly in economic and cyber security, since 2019. While progress is noted, military and human security cooperation requires further development.
Area of Science:
- International Relations
- Security Studies
- Political Science
Background:
- The European Union (EU) and Japan established an Economic Partnership Agreement (EPA) and a Strategic Partnership Agreement (SPA) in 2019.
- The SPA emphasizes shared values and addresses a challenging global security environment, aiming to deepen EU-Japan security cooperation.
Purpose of the Study:
- To map the evolution of EU-Japan security cooperation from 1990 to 2017.
- To identify areas of significant growth and stagnation in security collaboration between the EU and Japan.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of security cooperation domains between the EU and Japan.
- Mapping of cooperation trends over the 1990-2017 period.
Main Results:
- Cooperation has notably increased in economic security, cyber-security, and civil protection.
- Areas such as military, regional, energy, and human security, alongside counter-terrorism, show limited scope expansion.
Conclusions:
- The EU-Japan Strategic Partnership Agreement (SPA) provides a framework for expanding security cooperation.
- Future efforts should focus on addressing global and regional challenges and broadening cooperation into less developed security domains.

02:36Nuclear Power
9.0K
Controlled nuclear fission reactions are used to generate electricity. Any nuclear reactor that produces power via the fission of uranium or plutonium by bombardment with neutrons has six components: nuclear fuel consisting of fissionable material, a nuclear moderator, a neutron source, control rods, reactor coolant, and a shield and containment system.
Nuclear Fuels
Nuclear fuel consists of a fissile isotope, such as uranium-235, which must be present in sufficient quantity to provide a...

02:45Nuclear Fusion
33.4K
The process of converting very light nuclei into heavier nuclei is also accompanied by the conversion of mass into large amounts of energy, a process called fusion. The principal source of energy in the sun is a net fusion reaction in which four hydrogen nuclei fuse and ultimately produce one helium nucleus and two positrons.
A helium nucleus has a mass that is 0.7% less than that of four hydrogen nuclei; this lost mass is converted into energy during the fusion. This reaction produces about...

03:18Nuclear Stability
22.2K
Protons and neutrons, collectively called nucleons, are packed together tightly in a nucleus. With a radius of about 10−15 meters, a nucleus is quite small compared to the radius of the entire atom, which is about 10−10 meters. Nuclei are extremely dense compared to bulk matter, averaging 1.8 × 1014 grams per cubic centimeter. If the earth’s density were equal to the average nuclear density, the earth’s radius would be only about 200 meters.

01:42Nuclear Export
4.6K
The nucleus restricts several proteins within and allows others to pass. The restricted proteins possess a nuclear retention sequence or NRS, anchoring them to the nuclear lamins and preventing their transport to the cytosol. The non-restricted proteins, after their synthesis, are transported to their site of action, such as the cytosol or other organelles, with the help of nuclear export signals or NES.
NES are of three types- the canonical 10-residue long leucine-rich signal and other...

01:03Drug Control Governance: Regulatory Bodies and Their Impact
396
Drug control governance involves the oversight and regulation of pharmaceuticals to ensure their safety and efficacy while preventing illegal drug use and trafficking. Regulatory bodies, including the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and the European Union's European Medicines Agency (EMA), play a central role in this process. These agencies evaluate the safety and efficacy of drugs before they can be marketed. They fund clinical trials and assess the benefits and risks associated with...

03:20Nuclear Transmutation
20.2K
Nuclear transmutation is the conversion of one nuclide into another. It can occur by the radioactive decay of a nucleus, or the reaction of a nucleus with another particle. The first manmade nucleus was produced in Ernest Rutherford’s laboratory in 1919 by a transmutation reaction, the bombardment of one type of nuclei with other nuclei or with neutrons. Rutherford bombarded nitrogen-14 atoms with high-speed α particles from a natural radioactive isotope of radium and observed...
