The waste could be used for nuclear fusion, say researchers. Although nuclear fission, which powers nuclear reactors, can provide plenty of energy, it also produces potentially dangerous radioactive ...

Fission gas release constitutes a pivotal phenomenon in nuclear fuel behaviour during reactor operation. It involves the generation and migration of gaseous fission products—primarily xenon and ...

"Another significant milestone." Energy company begins construction on next-gen nuclear facility: 'The most robust nuclear ...

Researchers from Astral Systems, a company based in the U.K. at the University of Bristol, successfully bred tritium using their own reactor, as reported by Interesting Engineering. Although nuclear ...

Theoretically, there's no better, more practical source of reliable, carbon-free energy than the current generation of nuclear reactors. In practice, the theory holds water, but there are still a few ...

One physicist says his design to use nuclear waste as fuel for nuclear fusion could help the U.S. be a leader in the fusion economy. When you purchase through links on our site, we may earn an ...

Deep Fission is a fledgling startup that says it can help tech companies meet the "explosive demand" for more energy to power artificial intelligence. It's one of two nuclear companies that have ...

A company with a vision of installing “discreet, bespoke,” small, nuclear reactors 1 mile underground for data centers and other electricity-hungry industries plans to put its first reactors in Kansas ...
