Nuclear reactions that are found in thermonuclear explosions, stars measured for first time
A California-based lab has made the first experimental measurements of nuclear reactions in high-energy-density ...
Late last week, Israel targeted three of Iran’s key nuclear facilities – Natanz, Isfahan and Fordow, killing several Iranian nuclear scientists. The facilities are heavily fortified and largely ...
Physicists have measured a nuclear reaction that can occur in neutron star collisions, providing direct experimental data for a process that had previously only been theorised. The study provides new ...
Nuclear astrophysics is dedicated to unravelling the complex nuclear processes that govern stellar evolution, explosive cosmic events and the synthesis of elements throughout the Universe. Central to ...
There are some potentially valid criticism about the Nuclear Salt Water Rocket (NSWR). The criticisms highlight real physical constraints. A hydrogenous mixture will moderate neutrons, preventing a ...
China’s Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) is a nuclear-fusion research reactor in Hefei. Researchers hope ...
GREIFSWALD, GERMANY - OCTOBER 29: A worker explains a photo taken about a year and a half ago that shows construction of the interior plasma chamber of the Wendelstein 7-X experimental fusion reactor ...
The result is a fuel assembly that is extremely durable, resistant to heat and corrosion, and produces a self-limiting nuclear reaction that cannot go out of control. In addition to the fuel rods, ...
The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has cleared a major hurdle in making a Generation IV nuclear reactor practical. Using a new process, a team has developed a new way of processing fuel efficiently ...
