Nuclear fission is a substantial part of the world’s energy mix, but out in the broader universe, fission is much harder to come by. Now, a new study from Los Alamos National Laboratory and North ...
We took a look at the element tritium a short time ago. A "high octane" and ultra-rare nuclear isotope of which we have a global supply you could fit in an XL-sized suitcase. A supply that small could ...
An international team of scientists has identified an unexpected region of heavy, neutron-deficient isotopes in the nuclear chart where nuclear fission is predominantly governed by an asymmetric mode.
A five-dimensional model accurately predicts the asymmetric fission of mercury isotopes, advancing our understanding of nuclear fission beyond traditional heavy elements such as uranium and plutonium ...
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 ...
The elements above iron on the periodic table are thought to be created in cataclysmic explosions like the merger of two neutron stars or in rare classes of supernovae. New research suggests fission ...
BERKELEY, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Deep Fission Inc. (Deep Fission), a nuclear energy company pioneering a new approach to clean power by placing safe, small modular reactors (SMRs) in boreholes a ...
