Re: [Phys-l] Conservation of energy in nuclear reactions

Quoting John Denker <jsd@av8n.com>:

Bottom line: Energy is conserved. Period. There are no known
exceptions. Of course to make this work you need to include all
forms of energy, including the rest energy mc^2.

Energy could be "not conserved" in general relativity depending on one's definition.

In addition, energy could be "not conserved" in quantum physics when one applies uncertainty principle etc. :-)

Best regards,
Alphonsus
