When I first began studying nuclear engineering nearly 40 years ago, I was fascinated by the fact that nuclear reactions can transmute one element to another. As years passed and the nuclear ...
In a paper published in Physical Review C, the ALICE collaboration reports measurements that quantify the transmutation of lead into gold in CERN's Large Hadron Collider (LHC). Transforming the base ...
Transmutation of transuranics (TRUs) and fission products that are recovered from spent fuel offers potential for improving the technology for long-term disposal of ...
