Thorium has been called the “forgotten fuel of the future.” For decades, it remained in the shadows of uranium and fossil fuels, but interest is now surging. With the potential to provide clean, ...

Denmark's Copenhagen Atomics has signed a Letter of Intent with Rare Earths Norway to secure future access to thorium - the ...

A nuclear transition such as that in thorium-229 will be much less disturbed in the solid state, and its clock transition will be mostly preserved even in a crystal environment. The solid-state ...

The emission of photons by excited nuclei has been explored for timekeeping and sensing, but nuclear processes that eject electrons offer practical advantages. Electrons in atoms can exist only in ...
