Chemists from the National University of Singapore (NUS) have developed a single-atom photocatalytic strategy that enables ...

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 ...

Not only does nuclear fission provide the majority of the electricity that powers our homes, but it has also proved how destructive the power within the atom can be. When you purchase through links on ...

Researchers have used single carbon atom doping to form four chemical bonds in one step. Gamma-lactams (cyclic molecules that are common in antibiotics) were easily synthetically accessible from alpha ...

I agree 100% with the premise that nuclear power can serve our energy needs for the future. However, the use of thorium is a better choice for the smaller modular reactors. Thorium should be strongly ...

A new theory suggests fusion reactors could help scientists search for axions, mysterious particles that may explain dark ...

What does the inside of a nuclear fusion reactor look like? "It looks like the future," Stuart White, head of communications at Tokamak Energy, told Newsweek. "A spaceship. It's extremely striking, ...

Is nuclear power the world's best hope for slowing climate change—or a high-stakes gamble that risks radioactive disaster? What if it's both? As the world seeks cleaner energy sources, nuclear energy ...
