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 ...

The study presents a novel technique to quantify nuclear transmutation accurately, aiming to enhance the stability of radioactive waste and improve nuclear waste treatment facilities. Inspired by ...

Physicists at CERN have for the first time measured the transformation of lead nuclei into gold during experiments at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). This phenomenon, observed during heavy ion ...
