Stochastic Modeling: Simulating Isotope Decay via Monte Carlo Algorithms in C++17
In high-energy physics and nuclear engineering, deterministic equations often fall short when modeling quantum behaviors or particle-detector interactions. To bridge this gap, computational physics relies heavily on stochastic methods—specifically, Monte Carlo simulations. Before starting my upcoming nuclear and particle physics framework at Czech Technical University in Prague (ČVUT, FJFI), I developed an independent C++17 project…

Arc Reactor: Why Can’t Tony Stark’s Dream in His Chest Become Reality?
This morning I rewatched Iron Man. Tony Stark, trapped in a cave, builds a palm‑sized reactor out of scrap metal. Unlimited energy, right there in his chest. He saves himself, then the world. I paused the screen and thought: why can’t we do that? Why, in 2025, are we still paying electricity bills, still arguing…

Nuclear Energy: Fear’s Shadow or Tomorrow’s Light
I was born in 2007. I never lived through Chernobyl, never watched Fukushima unfold with the awareness of an adult. When the tsunami hit Japan in 2011, I was only four years old. The images must have been on television, but I don’t remember them. For my generation, nuclear disasters are not lived experiences but…
