Scientists in the United States have come up with a physics-based algorithm that could one day make it possible for nuclear microreactors to adjust the power output based on need. The study was funded ...

Scientists just brought us one step closer to the dream of unlimited power. On November 17 at the Nevada National Security Site, a nuclear energy startup called Valar Atomics achieved zero-power ...

In the traditional two-step method, the homogenization group constants of the fuel assembly are calculated using the assumption of reflective boundary conditions. In the hybrid two-step method used in ...

Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) have definitively answered a long-standing question: the tiny, natural pores inside graphite blocks do not affect the material’s performance as a ...
