A teaching guide of nuclear physics: the concept of bond

We propose discussions and hands-on activities for GCSE and A-level students, covering a fundamental aspect of nuclear physics: the concept of bond and the energy released (absorbed) when a bond is created (broken). This is the first of the series of papers named "A teaching guide of nuclear physics", whose main goal is to provide teaching tools and ideas to GCSE and A-level teachers, within a consistent and complete curriculum.
