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 ...
A research team from Chalmers University of Technology recently explored the process of nuclear fission in 100 nuclei and published its findings in Nature. With a thorough study that investigated ...

Award-winning US code maps how neutrons, photons move through nuclear fusion reactors
A powerful, open-source software package named OpenMC has emerged as a cornerstone in the ...
Researchers have employed Bayesian neural network approaches to evaluate the distributions of independent and cumulative ...
Nuclear and plasma physics form complementary pillars in our understanding of the fundamental forces and states of matter. Nuclear physics investigates the structure, dynamics and interactions of ...
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 ...
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 ...
Matthew Hole receives funding from the Australian government through the Australian Research Council and the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO), and the Simons Foundation.
Seventy years ago, at the dawn of the nuclear age, atomic energy was viewed as the next great hope of modern civilization. Lewis Strauss, then the chairman of the Atomic Energy Commission, infamously ...
