The algorithm is grounded in math and physics and allows a nuclear microreactor to automatically control its thermal power.

In January I wrote a piece titled “ 5 Physics Equations Everyone Should Know .” Lots of you weighed in with your own nominations, and there were plenty of good suggestions. So I’ve decided to do a ...

A new physics-based algorithm clears a path toward nuclear microreactors that can autonomously adjust power output based on need, according to a University of Michigan-led study published in Progress ...

What is the meaning of life? Even the best of us couldn't hope to answer that question in a Universe Today article. But there are those who would try to "constrain" it, at least in terms of physics. A ...

Researchers are building the case for putting nuclear microreactors in all sorts of places. Developers will need to work with communities to understand their hopes, concerns and priorities.

Microreactor technology for use in towns or cities hasn’t been developed yet, but many researchers have been building the case for its use.

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 ...

Leaders gather at Newsweek headquarters on Thursday to discuss the path forward for clean energy. Follow along for live updates.

Rising global energy demands are pushing the limits of solar technology. Scientists in Sweden have now taken a major step toward unlocking the potential of halide perovskites. Global demand for ...

Eni will purchase power from CFS’s planned ARC fusion plant, strengthening their $1B partnership to commercialise fusion energy by the early 2030s.

Nearly every cell in your body depends on mitochondria to survive and function properly. Mitochondria provide 90% of our bodies' energy, but less well-known are their roles in cellular signaling and ...

As the name suggests, particle accelerators involve accelerating subatomic particles to incredibly high speeds and smashing them into tiny targets.
