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.

Power-free system harnesses evaporation to keep items cool

MIT researchers have developed a two-layer passive cooling system, made of hydrogel and aerogel, that can keep foods and pharmaceuticals cool for days without the need for electricity. In this photo showing a close-up of the two-layer material, the upper layer consists of aerogel and the bottom layer of hydrogel.

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.
