Breakthroughs from two rival experiments, Germany’s Wendelstein 7-X and the Joint European Torus, suggest the elusive dream of controlled nuclear fusion may be within reach ...
Two Los Alamos Laboratory scientists discovered Arthur Ruhlig’s major contributions to fusion physics, and they did so ...
An atom consists of a heavy center, called the nucleus, made of particles called protons and neutrons. An atom has lighter ...
Fusion energy market set to reach $840.3 Billion by 2040, fueled by clean energy goals, R&D investments, and deuterium-based ...
Professor Harold Clayton Urey* of Columbia University has baptized the isotope of heavy hydrogen he discovered two years ago deuterium (Greek deuteros, second).
A MOF separates the heavy hydrogen isotope deuterium from ordinary hydrogen, just like grain sieves that detect millet and other grains for screening and grading.
CNL is considered to be a world leader in heavy water technology (Image: CNL) A new strategic partnership will see Canadian Nuclear Laboratories (CNL) leverage Atomic Energy of Canada Limited's (AECL) ...
What’s more, because deuterium and hydrogen are fairly stable, this imbalance would exist perpetually, and thus be easy to find, even if the alien civilization was long gone.
A pellet of fuel NIF’s method of sparking the nuclear fuel starts with a peppercorn-size pellet that contains a frozen mix of deuterium and tritium, two heavier isotopes of hydrogen.
Deuterium and hydrogen are isotopes of one another, meaning they're different forms of the same element, containing equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei. This ...
