NASA's Artemis II rocket is scheduled to blast off this spring, taking humans back to the moon's orbit for the first time in ...

As the spallation neutron beam passes through the TRISO particle, some neutrons are absorbed by the uranium while most are scattered away. A neutron area detector collects the scattered neutrons, ...

French startup Stellaria is asking regulators for permission to build an experimental fast-neutron molten salt reactor that ...

Neutron beam research and reactor technology constitute a vibrant field at the forefront of materials analysis, non‐destructive imaging and advanced reactor design. The utilisation of neutrons for ...

The figure illustrates the experimental setup used to measure neutron leakage spectra from natural lead (nat Pb) slab samples, employing both D-T and D-D neutron sources at the integral experiment ...

New nuclear fission technology is being developed but over 50 nuclear reactors involves over $200 billion of development. China is developing over $100 billion of new nuclear fission power. China can ...

China is building two advanced nuclear reactors with Russian assistance that will produce plutonium for Beijing’s rapid buildup of nuclear weapons, according to a new Air Force think tank study. The ...

The first three fuel assemblies with uranium-plutonium mixed oxide fuel containing transuranic elements americium-241 and neptunium-237 have been produced by Rosatom's Mining and Chemical Combine.

After more than 25 years of experience in condensed matter physics, as a student, researcher and in high-ranking executive roles at neutron scattering sources around the globe, Jon Taylor brings a ...

The Fuel Division of Russian state nuclear corporation Rosatom has manufactured and accepted a unique OS-5 fuel assembly based on mixed nitride uranium-plutonium nuclear fuel with a liquid metal ...

Testing basic principles of particle physics does not necessarily require a high-energy accelerator. As Peter Geltenbort explains, a growing community of neutron scientists is probing similarly ...

The ore was recovered in the early 1970s and completely stumped scientists, until they realized it was evidence of something ...
