Hydrogen bombs and atomic bombs are both nuclear weapons that can cause mass destruction. Most US nuclear weapons today were made in the 1950s and 1960s and are H-bombs. H-bombs are more powerful, ...

Seven years after the end of WWII, the US detonated the world's first hydrogen bomb. H-bombs use a combination of nuclear fission and fusion and are far more powerful than atomic bombs. Edward Teller, ...

North Korea warned this week that it might test a hydrogen bomb in the Pacific Ocean, after saying the country had already successfully detonated one. A hydrogen bomb has never been used in battle by ...

Indian Point nuclear power plant north of New York City could have been a cheap source of zero-carbon hydrogen, but it's being closed down. Hydrogen was thrust into the spotlight as a promising clean ...

The hydrogen economy is getting higher visibility and stronger political support in several parts of the world. In recent years the scope of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) program on ...

How powerful are hydrogen bombs? Think of it this way: They use atomic bombs just as a trigger. Atomic weapons like those previously tested by North Korea rely on nuclear fission to release energy — ...

Hydrogen is often thought to be linchpin of a future 100% renewable economy. To make up for wind and solar's deal-breaking intermittency and to rid industry of energy-dense fossil fuels, the surplus ...

North Korea is not backing down. Despite sustained international pressure and fiery rhetoric from U.S. President Donald Trump, Kim Jong Un's secretive regime said it had carried out its most powerful ...

Four U.S. nuclear generators—Energy Harbor, Xcel Energy, Exelon, and Arizona Public Service (APS)—are making headway on projects to demonstrate hydrogen production at nuclear plants, but scaling those ...

Scientists around the world are racing towards a green energy solution that is cheap, efficient, and scalable enough to replace fossil fuels before our carbon-based economy steers us past the tipping ...

Nuclear waste and a hydrogen economy may seem poles apart, but a new study by the University of Sharjah claims that spent fuel from nuclear power plants could be used to increase the efficiency of ...
