Many of the features of the reactor are designed to control the speed of the reaction and the temperature inside the shielding. An uncontrolled fission reaction is the basis of an atomic bomb.

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 ...

Fusion-fission hybrid reactors represent an innovative approach to energy generation, combining the benefits of both fusion and fission processes. These reactors aim to enhance energy production ...

Although to most the term ‘fission reactor’ brings to mind something close to the commonly operated light-water reactors (LWRs) which operate using plain water (H 2 O) as coolant and with ...

The Deep Fission reactor is based on the time-tested (67 years) traditional technology of the pressurized water reactor (PWR), the most common type of nuclear reactor around the world. even the same ...

Using its concept of underground small modular reactors (SMRs), California-based startup Deep Fission has reached an agreement to help power Endeavour Energy’s expanding data center portfolio.

Back in the 1950s, the U.S. started detonating nuclear bombs underground to limit the fallout, both radioactive and sociopolitical, unleashed by aboveground testing. Hundreds of feet of rock ...

Deep Fission, a small modular nuclear reactor (SMR) developer, has partnered with Endeavour Energy, a US sustainable infrastructure developer, to develop and deploy its technology at scale. As per the ...
