Its two sources of fuel, hydrogen and lithium, are widely available in many parts of the Earth. What’s the difference between nuclear fission and nuclear fusion? Both are nuclear processes, in that ...

Yet despite improvements in the design of nuclear-fission reactors, there remain public concerns about their safety and the waste that they produce. Many have suggested that harnessing nuclear ...

"Nuclear power generation requires a waste disposal solution, and responsible users should plan for waste management from the start," said Deep Fission co-founder and CEO Elizabeth Muller, who is also ...

Nuclear fission does not release the greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide. A controlled nuclear fission reaction releases one million times more energy per kg than a chemical reaction such as burning ...

Fermi, among others, realized that nuclear fission was accompanied by the release of colossal amounts of energy from the conversion of mass into energy (according to Einstein's mass-energy ...

nuclear fusion creates four times more energy per kilogram of fuel than traditional nuclear fission and four million times more than burning coal, with no greenhouse gasses or long-term ...
