Roula Khalaf, Editor of the FT, selects her favourite stories in this weekly newsletter. There’s no mystery as to why enthusiasm is building for small modular reactors, or SMRs. After all, large ...

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 ...

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 ...

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.

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 ...

After a long absence, Canada is back in the business of exporting nuclear reactors. In November, Montreal-based AtkinsRéalis Group Inc. (formerly SNC-Lavalin) announced it will participate in a ...

Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) refer to a newly developed and upcoming class of land-based nuclear fission reactors, which can be built and fabricated in specialised factories and can be assembled on ...

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission overstepped its authority by regulating small reactors the same as reactors large enough to pose significant threats to the public, the states of Texas, Utah, and a ...

The environment is the biggest concern most people have about nuclear power. It is possible for a reactor to melt down, leading to a runaway fission reaction that can spread radiation widely. This ...

He then also later was with the Naval Reactors Branch, U.S. Atomic Energy Commission, figuring into the "design and development of nuclear propulsion plants for naval vessels." This all led to the ...
