More nuclear energy industry is coming to New Mexico. Traditionally, nuclear in NM has meant "nuclear weapons", more so than almost anywhere else. But Kairos is betting big on benefits from being near the labs, for energy and not weapons #NukeSkywww.neimagazine.com/news/kairos-...
US-based Kairos Power is expanding its operations in New Mexico to build three facilities and create 100 jobs. Kairos Power…

Simultaneous single-particle uranium isotopic determination and fluorine detection is a useful new capability for nonproliferation and international safeguards. UF6 is the chemical form used in uranium enrichment, a key step in the nuclear fuel cycle #NukeSkyphys.org/news/2024-09... 🧪
Combining two techniques, analytical chemists at the Department of Energy's Oak Ridge National Laboratory have become the first to detect fluorine and different isotopes of uranium in a single particl...
The massive release of radionuclides into the ecosystem from nuclear weapon testing put "radioactive tracers" into the Earth's systems, allowing us to track and understand their dynamics. I have a chapter on this in my recent book. #NukeSky#HistSTMeos.org/research-spo...
Tracing anthropogenic radionuclides shows researchers how water from the Atlantic flows into and mingles with Arctic currents.
time for periodic (7-18 months-ish) news story on using nuclear weapons to deflect Earth impactors. It’s something semi-relevant folk at Labs can work on while waiting for clearances. www.theguardian.com/science/2024...#Nukesky
US physicists show how immense pulse of radiation could vaporise the side of asteroid and nudge it off course
