Cancer drugs and climate protection instead of nuclear waste - facilities for electrochemical partitioning and accelerator-driven transmutation The development of facilities for electrochemical partitioning and accelerator-driven transmutation (P&T) is currently flourishing: the German government recently invested several million euros in Transmutex AG, a CERN spin-off dedicated to this topic. The American Read more
Nuclear power 2.0: The future of reactor technology The development of reactor technology began with the first reactor design lines developed in the 1950s, mainly for power generation and military applications. Early designs included pressurised water reactors (PWRs), boiling water reactors (BWRs) and gas-cooled reactors. In parallel, specific construction lines were developed to improve fuel utilisation, Read more
iMAGINE - Can we save ourselves the final repository? Germany is at a crossroads, on the one hand with regard to a possible future for nuclear energy, and on the other hand with regard to the final disposal of residual waste and the associated site selection process. The massive postponement of the standard setting, communicated some time ago, to 2046 at the earliest, opens up new opportunities to test technologies that could possibly be used in the future.

Opening the black box - Modern AI approaches in the nuclear industry We are at a particular point in AI history where we are seeing more and more milestones being achieved by AI in less and less time. This exponential development, in terms of the potential of AI systems, goes hand in hand with an increasing Read more
Online lecture on the topic "In search of love and likes" on 12 December 2024 | 11:30 - 13:00 Public relations makes sense. What is a matter of course for big brands such as Apple, Amazon or Audi often seems to be doubted by nuclear companies, at least since the German nuclear phase-out. Internal cost pressure and the Read more
29th International QUENCH Workshop The 29th International QUENCH Workshop will be held at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology (Karlsruhe, Germany), Campus North, from 19 to 21 November 2024.
