Exotic hypothetical particles known as axions could be produced inside a nuclear reactor, something The Big Bang Theory’s ...

Experiments inside a fusion reactor in China have demonstrated a new way to circumvent one of the caps on the density of the superheated plasma swirling inside.

Rosatom’s Breakthrough Project nears completion of the world’s first industrial closed fuel cycle for fast neutron reactors ...

Fusion power has long been sold as the technology that could light our cities with the same process that powers the stars.

Through theoretical derivation, researchers have concluded that a simple linear relationship exists between the reactivity of ...

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

Physicists have spent decades chasing two grand technological dreams: harnessing fusion power and uncovering the nature of ...

The liquid-fueled molten salt reactors such as the MSRE and the TMSR-LF have distinguishing dynamic features compared with solid-fueled reactors, such that conventional system analysis codes are not ...

A breakthrough experiment revealed how plasma turbulence spreads heat inside fusion reactors, solving a decades-old problem ...

The insides of nuclear fusion reactors are violent and chaotic places. A new cold-spray coating can take the heat and also trap some rogue hydrogen particles at the same time, potentially making for ...

Small Modular Reactors are pivoting the nuclear industry from custom-built energy cathedrals to factory-built energy ...

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 ...
