The Natrium technology features an advanced nuclear design with a 345 MW sodium-cooled fast reactor with a gigawatt-scale molten salt-based energy storage system. The energy storage capability allows ...

Since 3.3.x, this repository also contains reactor-tools, a java agent aimed at helping with debugging of Reactor code. See the reference documentation for more information on getting it (eg. using ...

Weathered’s primary experiment is the Thermal Hydraulic Experimental Test Article (THETA), a 500-liter pool-type sodium facility offering high fidelity data for nuclear reactor computer code ...

Largely a brainchild of Dr. Weinberg, the reactor HRE-2 (for Homogeneous Reactor Experiment No. 2) is an attempt to avoid some of the worst disadvantages of solid-fuel reactors. Since solid ...

Physicists are putting the finishing touches on the Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory, or JUNO, which will delve into the secretive ways of neutrinos, a family of extremely lightweight ...

After a half-century hiatus, thorium has returned to the front lines of nuclear power research as a source of fuel. In 2025, China plans to start building a demonstration thorium-based molten-salt ...

China’s rapidly expanding nuclear power industry passed a major milestone on New Year’s Day, as the first reactor at a sprawling new plant on the country’s southeastern coastline started ...

You must have heard about the negative effects of eating salty foods, but did you know not all high sodium foods are bad for you? While table salt is high in sodium, it is usually not the cause of ...

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission has been accused in a new lawsuit of hindering the nuclear energy industry, particularly smaller reactors, by imposing extensive time and cost licensing requirements.

Scientists at the institution showed through an innovative quantum experiment that light appears to emerge from a material before entering, overturning several decades of prevailing ideas about ...

If you’re looking for low sodium meals, it can be even harder to plan and make healthy meals for the entire week. A low sodium diet plan typically involves limiting processed foods and eating ...

Taking inspiration from how nature — including lightning — produces ammonia, a UB-led team has developed a reactor that produces the chemical commodity from nitrogen in the air and water, without any ...
