Abstract:
In this research, we introduce new equations for describing nuclear energy and atomic mass, which take into account the sum of the masses of other objects resulting from nuclear fission. We analyze the old equations and the new equations, and compare the results. We find that there is a difference between the results, which is due to the fact that our calculations take into account the sum of the masses of neutrons resulting from nuclear fission.

Introduction:
In this research, we will explore new concepts in the field of nuclear energy and atomic mass, known as Al-Hamed concepts in nuclear energy and atomic mass. We will analyze the equations that describe these phenomena.
Nuclear Energy in Old Concepts:
Nuclear energy is the energy produced by nuclear fission, a physical process that leads to the division of the atomic nucleus into smaller nuclei.
Nuclear Energy in New Concepts:
Nuclear energy is the energy produced by nuclear fission, a physical process that leads to the division of the atomic nucleus into smaller nuclei and other particles such as neutrons.
Old Equation:
The equation that describes nuclear energy is Einstein's equation:
E = mc^2
Old Concept of Atomic Mass:
Atomic mass is the sum of the masses of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
Equation that describes Atomic Mass:
m = m_p + m_n
Where:
m: atomic mass
m_p: proton mass
m_n: neutron mass
New Concepts in Atomic Mass and Nuclear Mass:
Atomic Mass:
Atomic mass is the sum of the masses of protons, neutrons, and electrons in the entire atom.
Equation that describes Atomic Mass:
m = m_p + m_n + m_e
Where:
m: atomic mass
m_p: proton mass
m_n: neutron mass
m_e: electron mass
Nuclear Mass:
Nuclear mass is the sum of the masses of protons and neutrons in the nucleus only.
Equation that describes Nuclear Mass:
m_nucleus = m_p + m_n
Where:
m_nucleus: nuclear mass
m_p: proton mass
m_n: neutron mass
The New Equation for Nuclear Energy
The new equation for nuclear energy is:
E = ((m - s) × c²)
Where:
• E: nuclear energy
• m: mass difference between the original nucleus and the resulting nuclei
• s: sum of the masses of other particles produced by nuclear fission
• c: speed of light
Example
Suppose we have a uranium-235 (U-235) nucleus that splits into two nuclei, barium-141 (Ba-141) and krypton-92 (Kr-92), and three neutrons.
Calculations
First, calculation according to Einstein's old equation:
E = (m × c²)
Where:
m = 235 - (141 + 92)
m = 2
E = (2 × 1.66 × 10⁻²⁷ kg) × (3 × 10⁸ m/s)²
E = (3.32 × 10⁻²⁷ kg) × (9 × 10¹⁶ m²/s²)
E = 2.988 × 10⁻¹⁰ J
Second, calculation according to Al-Hamed's new equation:
E = ((m - s) × c²)
Where:
m = 235 - (141 + 92)
m = 2
Mass of the three neutrons is:
m_n = 3 × 1.0087 × 1.66 × 10⁻²⁷ kg
m_n = 16.3398693 × 10⁻²⁷ kg
s = m_n
s = 16.3398693 × 10⁻²⁷ kg
E = (((2 × 1.66 × 10⁻²⁷ kg) - (16.3398693 × 10⁻²⁷ kg)) × (3 × 10⁸ m/s)²)
E = ((1.9983660131 × 1.66 × 10⁻²⁷ kg) × (9 × 10¹⁶ m²/s²))
E = (3.31728758175 × 10⁻²⁷ kg) × (9 × 10¹⁶ m²/s²)
E = 2.98555882358 × 10⁻¹⁰ kg.m²/s²
E = 2.98555882358 × 10⁻¹⁰ J
Comparison of Results
ΔE = (2.98555882358 × 10⁻¹⁰ J) - (2.988 × 10⁻¹⁰ J)
ΔE = -1.24411764 × 10⁻¹² J
We found that there is a difference between the results, which is due to the fact that our calculations take into account the sum of the masses of other particles produced by nuclear fission, which in our case is the sum of the masses of neutrons produced by nuclear fission.
This difference shows the importance of taking into account other particles produced by nuclear fission when calculating nuclear energy.
