RICHLAND — An eight-person crew at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation was exposed to low levels of radioactivity last month while removing an exit sign dating back from 1953. The Tri-City Herald reported ...

In a separate study, undergraduate student Levi Hancock utilized ptycho-tomography to image a single pillar of TPP foam just 10 microns wide. Despite the challenge of working with low-density ...

Instead of using solid pellets, the scientists injected deuterium and tritium into foam capsules. The clever bit is that when the laser array shoots at a capsule, the beams cause the capsule to ...

Scientists completed several successful attempts to fire 28 kilojoules of laser energy at small capsules filled with deuterium and tritium fuel, causing the capsules to implode and produce a plasma ...

At the National Ignition Facility (NIF), researchers direct the energy from 192 lasers to initiate nuclear reactions at higher energy and density than possible elsewhere. Study of these reactions will ...
