Chinese scientists created new atomic nuclei, pushing scientific boundaries

Leave a Comment / Nuclear & Particles, Physics /

Chinese scientists have created two previously unobserved atomic nuclei—Berkelium-235 and Americium-231—that exist for only about 75 seconds, according to a study in Physics Letters B. The discovery extends knowledge of the periodic table and puts current nuclear theories to the test. The experiment was carried out at the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese

Nuclear Waste Could Become a Source of Tritium for Fusion Power

Material & Energy, Nuclear & Particles /

A looming shortage of fuel for nuclear fusion may have an unexpected fix. A physicist at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) suggests that tritium for fusion reactors could be generated using nuclear waste left over from fission plants. If fusion energy becomes practical, it could revolutionize power production, delivering virtually limitless electricity on demand. Yet,

The World’s First Nuclear Explosion Created a Rare Form of Matter

Nuclear & Particles, Physics, Science /

Eighty years ago, at 5:29 a.m. on July 16, 1945, a momentous and devastating event unfolded in the New Mexico desert. That morning, the U.S. Army conducted the Trinity test—the world’s first detonation of a nuclear bomb—using a plutonium-based implosion device nicknamed “the Gadget.” This unprecedented explosion marked the dawn of the nuclear age and
