This study explores a groundbreaking theoretical method to neutralize high-level radioactive waste using lead oxide (PbO) ...
In a cavernous tunnel beneath the French–Swiss border, physicists have briefly recreated conditions that existed microseconds after the Big Bang and, in the process, knocked lead atoms into becoming ...
One of the most formidable obstacles to exploiting the full potential of nuclear energy is the long-term disposal of highly radioactive waste that is generated by the burning of fuel in nuclear ...
US-based Project Omega is developing technologies to recycle spent nuclear fuel into long-duration batteries and materials for advanced reactors.
