Chinese researchers have a new method to extract uranium from seawater twice as cheaply as previous technologies. Their ...

Computer simulations help materials scientists and biochemists study the motion of macromolecules, advancing the development ...

MIT scientists have snapped the first-ever images of individual atoms interacting freely in space, making visible the elusive ...

The miniaturization of a powerful source of energy is already underway, and it will be safer and cheaper than traditional nuclear power.

Thorium is 'fertile', which means that an atom of thorium can be transformed into an atom of uranium-232 when it is bombarded with neutrons. In a molten-salt reactor, thorium is dissolved in hot ...

Helium results from the decay of uranium and thorium, which takes billions of years, study co-author Jon Gluyas, a professor of geoenergy, carbon capture and storage at the University of Durham in ...

And as the building continues to evolve. Edel said he encourages other companies to replicate The Plant's business model. "We are doing this because we see a need, and we see a warming planet ...

Scientists have built the first-ever thorium reactor. Thorium is both more easily accessible and less dangerous than uranium—the most common fission fuel. The system also uses molten salt ...

WASHINGTON – Iran will have to stop enriching uranium under any deal with the United States and can only import what is needed for a civilian nuclear programme, US Secretary of State Marco Rubio ...
