The capsules contain about 30% of all the radioactivity at the Hanford nuclear site.
RICHLAND, Wash. - The Hanford Site recently completed a transfer of the first batch of radioactive capsules from underwater ...
The Most Radioactive Place on Earth Lake Karachay has been described as the "most polluted spot on Earth" by the Worldwatch ...
Researchers at University of Tsukuba have developed a cellulose-based composite sheet that integrates paper pulp with starch, ...
Hanford moves 1st radioactive capsules from underwater storage. The capsules could break and release radiation in a severe earthquake. Dry storage should be safer and reduces maintenance and ...
RICHLAND – Hanford nuclear reservation scientists will soon begin using a substance found in bones and teeth to stop radioactive contamination from reaching the Columbia River. After seven years of ...
Physicists have measured a nuclear reaction that can occur in neutron star collisions, providing direct experimental data for a process that had previously only been theorised. The study provides new ...
The first capsules of high-level radioactive waste have been removed from a water-filled pool at the Hanford nuclear site to prepare them for safer dry storage in steel-lined, reinforced-concrete ...
