A green energy sea cable project overseen by Ed Miliband risks spreading nuclear waste across the pristine beaches of Orkney.

A team of researchers at the Facility for Rare Isotope Beams (FRIB) at Michigan State University (MSU) has discovered that cobalt-70 isotopes form different nuclear shapes when their energy levels ...

Since the atomic nucleus was first proposed in 1911, physicists simply assumed it was round. But are the nuclei of atoms really round? Intuitively this shape makes sense and physicists believed it ...

Instead, high-energy radiation and electromagnetic pulses dominate, posing serious risks to satellites, spacecraft, and ...

Using the Summing Nal Detector, a team of experimental and theoretical scientists at FRIB took another step in understanding how an atomic nucleus can have two different shapes corresponding to only ...

One expert says explosive nuclear testing would be 'alarming.' President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that he is ordering the United States to resume nuclear testing, leaving experts wondering ...

Three major nuclear reactor accidents—Three Mile Island (1979 in the United States), Chernobyl (1986 in Ukraine, then part of the Soviet Union), and Fukushima Dai-ichi (2011 in Japan)—significantly ...
