An Iranian delegation visited Russian scientific institutes that produce dual-use technologies — components with potential ...

Other nuclear fusion experiments have achieved temperatures of up to more than 100 million Kelvin, or 180 million F. Most fusion occurs at the sun's core (27 million degrees F).

As the 80th anniversaries of the twin nuclear accidents involving the demon core come into view in 2025 and 2026, one can't help but find it curious how some of the same conditions that started ...

Westinghouse and CORE POWER are partnering for the design and development of a floating nuclear power plant using the industry-leading eVinci™ microreactor. Floating Nuclear Power Plant Image ...

In a conventional nuclear reactor, the main line of defense against a meltdown is the fuel control rod, which power plant operators use to control the fission rate in the core. If things get too ...

3D printing will also help nuclear engineers get a better picture of what is happening inside a core once the reactor is up and running. In a conventional reactor, a core’s behavior has to be ...

NANO Nuclear Energy Inc. has achieved a major milestone in pursuing clean, on-demand nuclear power by assembling the first reactor core hardware for its ZEUS microreactor. This half-scale solid ...

CORE’s FNPP is a nearshore infrastructure system that includes a barge-based nuclear power plant along with barge support services, electrical grid integration, and operational teams.

The demon core, that 14-pound lump of plutonium that claimed the life of Louis Slotin, began its existence as rods of uranium-238, a relatively stable isotope, at the Hanford Site in Washington ...

On September 27, 1971, a nuclear bomb exploded on Russia’s Novaya Zemlya islands. The powerful blast sent waves rippling so deep inside Earth they ricocheted off the inner core, pinging an array ...
