An escape route for seafloor methane

A new study has solved the mystery of how and why columns of the methane gas can stream out of methane hydrates. Both the bubble tubes and the inverted droplets are encased in clear gas hydrate.

Powering through the coming energy transition

According to more than half of the models cited in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s Fifth Assessment Report, carbon capture and storage will be required to realize the Paris goal, but to what extent will it need to be deployed to ensure that outcome?

Study identifies reasons for soaring nuclear plant cost overruns in the U.S...

A new study covering 50 years of U.S. nuclear power plant construction data found that, contrary to expectations, building plants based on existing designs actually costs more, rather than less, than building plants based on new designs. This photo shows a construction site of a new modern nuclear power plant.

Pushing the envelope with fusion magnets

David Fischer sits beside the experiment’s vacuum chamber (illuminated in blue), where the high temperature superconductor tapes will be mounted for proton irradiation and in situ transport current measurement. His laptop shows data obtained in such measurements — the basis for determining the critical current.
