Kokkuvõte	Nuclear fuel cycle analysis is a comprehensive assessment of uranium and plutonium flows from extraction through enrichment, power generation, and waste management, originating from Fermi's controlled nuclear reaction. It quantifies resource requirements, energy balances, greenhouse gas emissions, and waste streams to evaluate nuclear energy sustainability, proliferation risk, and economic viability.	Nuclear decay analysis is the systematic study of radioactive transformation processes, originating from Rutherford and Soddy's work in the early 1900s. It quantifies the rate and modes of nuclear disintegration using decay constants, half-lives, and branching ratios to predict activity evolution, date samples via radiometric methods, and assess the long-term hazard from radioactive materials.
