Uranium's use in nuclear weapons is, understandably, the source of the widespread phobia felt by most for uranium. However, it is only weakly radioactive — the half-life of 238 U is 4.468 × 10 ...

Armour made of depleted uranium is much more resistant to penetration by conventional anti-armour ammunitions than conventional hard rolled steel armour plate. Armour piercing ammunitions are ...

According to IEEE.org, Scientists at the Japan Atomic Energy Agency have been working to turn the depleted uranium waste ...

This publication highlights the potential presence of uranium in ore deposits that are not commonly thought of as uraniferous and therefore highlights potential additional sources of uranium supply.

increasing uranium adsorption capacity by up to 213%. The researchers further discovered that controlling the soft-template size used during synthesis allows fine-tuning of pore density and pore ...

Density anomalies in the basement rock coinciding with known graphitic conductors are often indicative of potential zones of hydrothermal alteration of host rocks associated with uranium ...

Notably, uranium enhanced arsenic adsorption, increasing removal efficiency by up to 3.4 times compared to arsenic-only systems. Using in situ ATR-FTIR spectroscopy and density functional theory ...
