Non-Light Water ReactorsThe U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) has launched a novel pilot program that will allow private developers to build and operate full-scale advanced nuclear test reactors ...

What are some open challenges? VS: This is just the latest (and perhaps the craziest) chapter in an old tale. I heard first about small nuclear reactors more than 40 years ago from Alvin Weinberg (a ...

Unlike current nuclear reactors, an Oklo microreactor, which it calls Aurora, would only take up about two acres of land. Also unlike a large nuclear reactor, Aurora doesn't require water as a ...

Drawing on her engineering background, hands-on experience in reactor operations and a deep knowledge of energy policy and regulatory issues, Korsnick aims to increase understanding of nuclear ...

A compact 3 kg (6.6 lbs) detector has allowed scientists to detect elusive antineutrinos from a nuclear reactor.

A record-breaking heat wave in Europe is warming up the river water that some nuclear power plants use for cooling, prompting operators to shut down at least three reactors at two separate sites ...

Researchers at Canadian Nuclear Laboratories are studying high entropy alloys to build stronger safer nuclear reactors in the ...

“Texas Tech University is proud to partner with Abilene Christian University and Natura Resources in advancing desalination of produced water through cutting-edge molten salt reactor technology ...

OctopusEffects, #aftereffects In this tutorial, I will show you how to make the water in still photos or paintings move like ...

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 ...

BWX Technologies said on Thursday it has secured contracts worth $2.6 billion, including future options, to manufacture components for nuclear submarines and an aircraft carrier for the U.S. Navy.
