Discerning whether a nuclear reactor is being used to also create material for nuclear weapons is difficult, but capturing and analyzing antimatter particles has shown promise for monitoring what ...

Researchers have detected higher than normal levels of iodine-129 in the West Philippine Sea. This radioactive isotope, ...

Fluorescent Nuclear Track Detectors (FNTDs) represent a significant leap forward in solid-state dosimetry, utilising novel luminescent materials such as aluminium oxide crystals doped with carbon and ...

Nuclear power plants are exposed to high-energy radiation, which degrades materials over time. Particles and rays interact with critical components, particularly in the reactor core, leading to ...
