The study presents a novel technique to quantify nuclear transmutation accurately, aiming to enhance the stability of radioactive waste and improve nuclear waste treatment facilities. Inspired by ...

The research team from Shanghai Jiao Tong University have made significant progress in transuranic isotope production. The team has proposed a method for neutron spectrum regulation with high spectral ...

The library of two-dimensional (2D) layered materials keeps growing, from basic 2D materials to metal chalcogenides. Unlike their bulk counterparts, 2D layered materials possess novel features that ...

Nuclear power is considered one of the ways to reduce dependence on fossil fuels, but how to deal with nuclear waste products is a concern. Radioactive waste products can be turned into more stable ...

#10 The selective transmutation conundrum — Again, the very nature of requirements postulated by Widom-Larson theory that would allow for the presumed cocktail of energies, and events that would lead ...

It may be possible to dramatically reduce the radioactive waste isolation time -- from several million years to as little as 300 - 500 years. In order to decrease the isolation time for radioactive ...

AT the Friday evening discourse before the Royal Institution on March 19, Lord Rutherford discussed “The Transmutation of the Heavy Elements”. During the last few years, our knowledge of the ...
