NRD, LLC, a California-based nuclear materials manufacturer, has begun selling a solid-state betavoltaic power cell built around nickel-63, a radioactive isotope whose slow decay can generate electricity for up to 100 years without recharging.

As the demand for nuclear security solutions grows, distinguishing a benign medical isotope from a potential threat is critical. Organic glass scintillators can help meet the need for accurate, cost-effective radiation detectors.

Discerning whether a nuclear reactor is being used to also create material for nuclear weapons is difficult, but capturing and analyzing antimatter particles has shown promise for monitoring what specific nuclear reactor operations are occurring, even from ...

The elevator display reads "433", the number of metres below ground. Above ground, the spent nuclear fuel will be encapsulated in highly corrosion-resistent copper canisters.

Members of both parties hope the administration will back up its “Make American Healthy Again” slogan with new support for long-stalled legislation. Lawmakers and advocates working to secure compensation for victims of nuclear radiation are hoping that ...

Nuclear power plants are exposed to high-energy radiation, which degrades materials over time. Particles and rays interact with critical components, particularly in the reactor core, leading to swelling, embrittlement, and reduced mechanical strength.

The video was authentic and showed Galen Winsor, a figure known for his unconventional views on nuclear energy and radiation safety. Winsor believed the fear of nuclear radiation was exaggerated. What's False However, Winsor was not a "renowned physicist ...
