Coal-fired power plants, long an increasingly money-losing proposition in the U.S., are becoming more valuable now that the ...

Great British Nuclear (GBN), the UK body set up to oversee the plans for new nuclear is launching a tender to procure up to two owner’s engineers (OEs) as part of its small modular reactor SMR ...

Scientists have built the first-ever thorium reactor. Thorium is both more easily accessible and less dangerous than uranium—the most common fission fuel. The system also uses molten salt instead of ...

A collaboration of US-based researchers has turned to the PROSPECT-I detector at ORNL in search of the elusive sterile ...

Learning to pause and listen is imperative. Before making a crucial people decision, take a deliberate five-second pause.

Liu, who serves as the director of the Scientific Machine learning for Advanced Reactor Technologies (SMART) group, believes Zavier's work will make an impact on the broader nuclear engineering ...

For the first time, nuclear fuel enriched above 5% will be irradiated in a commercial U.S. reactor, the Department of Energy announced Thursday.

The isolation of compounds featuring an actinide–actinide bond is challenging. Now a well-defined Th(III) dimer with a Th–Th two-centre one-electron (2c-1e) σ bond and a 2c-1e π bond is ...

"We believe that to address today’s massive data centre market demand, another category of nuclear reactor is needed, one that blends the benefit of the factory manufacturing of microreactors, the ...

leadership discussed the story behind its modular pod nuclear plants and its non-nuclear reactor designed specifically for data centers. "All the past nuclear plants that have ever been built were ...

The detector will also be used at various premier laboratories such as CERN in advanced nuclear astrophysics setups, nuclear reaction and structure experiments. It enables measurements of elemental ...
