A global nuclear energy resurgence is underway, driven by the need for a stable, low-carbon energy mix and massive electricity demand projections spurred by the artificial intelligence boom. Deep ...
Deep Fission has started drilling for its first-of-a-kind "gravity reactor" project in Kansas, which places a 15-megawatt reactor 6,000 feet underground to cut operational costs by up to 80%. The ...
Challenges, breakthroughs and big ideas in the race to protect our planet. SEE MORE by Lisa Stiffler on Apr 29, 2026 at 6:31 am April 29, 2026 at 2:49 pm Zap Energy announced plans Wednesday to become ...
In a single experiment, physicists have measured the "excess" emission of high-energy gamma rays from more than a dozen heavy, unstable atomic nuclei. Mapping the gamma-ray emissions of so many ...
Nobody said building a fusion power plant would be easy. Physicists and engineers have been working for decades to crack the problem. But over the last year or so, fusion startup Zap Energy took a ...
An international team of scientists has identified an unexpected region of heavy, neutron-deficient isotopes in the nuclear chart where nuclear fission is predominantly governed by an asymmetric mode.
