Tungsten alloys, specifically, provide "grain boundaries [that] serve as sinks for radiation defects," per Nature. Meanwhile, ...

Fukuoka, Japan—In organic molecules an exciton is a particle bound pair of an electron (negative charge) and its hole (positive charge). They are held together by Coulombic attraction and can move ...

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 ...

The hydrogen bomb, unlike the atomic bomb used on Hiroshima, generates energy through fusion by fusing isotopes of hydrogen, ...

Outdone only by nuclear fusion, the process of nuclear fission releases enormous amounts of energy. The ‘spicy rocks’ that are at the core of both natural and artificial fission reactors are generally ...

A breakthrough this week in nuclear fusion could point the way to a future of carbon-free power. In a press conference Tuesday in California, the Department of Energy revealed that at 1:03 a.m. Dec. 5 ...

Fusion is among the most environmentally friendly sources of energy. There are no CO 2 or other harmful atmospheric emissions from the fusion process, which means that fusion does not contribute to ...

Deep Fission, an advanced nuclear energy company, has signed Letters of Intent (LOI) with data centers, co-developers, ...

Initial meetings with Federal and Provincial regulators complete and initial assessment submission underway KELOWNA, BC, Feb. 20, 2020 /CNW/ - FISSION URANIUM CORP. ("Fission" or "the Company") is ...

Deep Fission is a fledgling startup that says it can help tech companies meet the "explosive demand" for more energy to power ...

Singlet fission (SF) is an exciton amplification phenomenon in which two triplet excitons are generated from a singlet exciton produced by the absorption of a single photon in chromophores. A team of ...
