In order for nuclear fission to occur, the nuclear ore not only needs to be refined, it needs to be enriched. That is, the natural percentage by weight of the uranium isotope 235 to 238 must be ...

Because Xinghuo is a fusion-fission plant, it will make use of both technologies in its production of energy. Nuclear fusion is a reaction in which two or more light nuclei combine to form a ...

Fusion power is the holy grail of energy technologies: it makes more energy than nuclear fission, produces less waste, doesn’t create anything that could be used in a weapon, and has zero risk ...

All the nuclear power plants in operation right now use nuclear fission—the process of splitting apart an atom—to produce energy. But scientists have spent decades and entire careers in a ...

The process is much different than fission, the nuclear reaction that powers current nuclear reactors and the atomic bomb. Fusion is a carbon-free process that relies on heated plasma, a gas made ...

Weapons are supercritical: The plutonium is compressed enough to sustain chains of nuclear fission reactions, the splitting of atomic nuclei. The chain reactions occur because fission spits out ...

Nuclear fusion – the high-pressure, high-temperature reaction that heats the sun – releases far more energy than nuclear fission, the process currently used to generate nuclear energy. Fusion also ...
