  • [New] The Proton Improvement Plan-II upgrades to the Fermilab accelerator complex will allow for megawatt level proton beams, which will support particle physics experiments that produce very large datasets. INDICO-FNAL (Indico)
  • [New] Operated by the Institute of Plasma Physics, Beijing expects its reactor to record its first fusion ignition experiment in 2027, a milestone that would make EAST the world's first self-sustained reactor, in which plasma can burn without external heating sources. BGR
  • Jefferson Lab presently focuses on nuclear physics but plans to become a multi-purpose lab in the coming years by constructing the High Performance Data Facility, a major new user facility offering infrastructure for data-intensive science. AIP
  • Breakthroughs in quantum physics emerge in academic circles, hinting at computational leaps that could upend encryption and the AI supremacy race dominated by OpenAI and Google. TheEye
  • As long as knowledge of nuclear physics and fissile materials remain in the world, someone will possess a virtual nuclear arsenal capable of being developed into a real arsenal on some calculable timetable. Hudson Institute
