Nuclear Astrophysics is a combination of nuclear physics and astrophysics. Nuclear physics is the study of atomic nuclei, their composition, and their interactions, while astrophysics aims at studying the universe and galactic objects such as stars and galaxies. Nuclear astrophysics delves into the questions of how the elements are distributed throughout the universe and where/when those elements originated.
