Nuclear-free zone

A nuclear-free zone is an area where nuclear weapons (see nuclear-weapon-free zone), nuclear power plants are banned. The specific ramifications of these depend on the locale in question. Nuclear free zones usually do not address nor prohibit radiopharmaceuticals used in nuclear medicine, even though many of these are produced in nuclear reactors. Nuclear Free Zones typically do not prohibit other nuclear technologies such as cyclotrons used in particle physics.
