Global interest in fast reactors has been growing since their inception in 1960 because they can provide efficient, safe and sustainable energy. Their closed fuel cycle can support long-term nuclear ...
The Idaho National Laboratory (INL) has cleared a major hurdle in making a Generation IV nuclear reactor practical. Using a ...
The researchers performed transient tests on a high-burnup metallic fuel that was archived from historic irradiation testing ...
The Micro–Physics Nuclear Reactor Simulator was developed by Nuclear Engineering, Ltd. (NEL), in Japan, in 2014, as a platform for analysis and visualization of behaviour of the nuclear reactor core ...
Tests carried out on high burnup fast reactor fuel as part of a collaboration between the USA and Japan are the first of ...
The experiment aims to provide scientists an opportunity to examine the safety and physics of a molten chloride fast reactor ...
After years of effort, the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) scientists have created fuel for the world’s first fast-spectrum ...
The industry ministry picked Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd. as a company to play the core role in developing a next-generation nuclear reactor with a demonstration sodium-cooled fast reactor ...
This is where fast neutron reactors are highly attractive. Fast neutron reactors can also fission other fissile elements, covering the full spectrum of neutron cross sections. TerraPower’s ...
