A new physics-based algorithm clears a path toward nuclear microreactors that can autonomously adjust power output based on need, according to a University of Michigan-led study published in Progress ...

The algorithm is grounded in math and physics and allows a nuclear microreactor to automatically control its thermal power.

Scientists in the United States have come up with a physics-based algorithm that could one day make it possible for nuclear microreactors to adjust the power output based on need. The study was funded ...

What is a dataflow architecture? Why Efficient Computer’s Electron E1 processor design is so radical. How the Electron E1 is able to be so power-efficient. My master’s degree work many decades ago was ...

Scientists at the Department of Applied Physics II of the University of Malaga have participated in the design of a new technology that controls fluids and particles in three dimensions through ...

When the current method for producing something is estimated to consume a staggering 1–2% of the annual global energy supply, it means we need to make a change. The Haber-Bosch process produces ample ...

Nuclear microreactors—compact, transportable power sources that can produce up to 20 megawatts of thermal energy—could one day supply reliable, carbon-free energy to places ranging from remote ...
