The growing demand for tritium from fusion startups raises two critical questions: (1) can legacy stocks and existing production capacities meet this demand? (2) are existing export control and accountancy procedures sufficient? peacescience.net/2026/08/31/n...

The highest ever in Austria recorded temperature was today in Vienna. I was there as I was at Neusiedl in 2013.

Interesting blog post by Peace Science Collaboration quoting the paper by Kalinowski & Trillo (2025) about remote observations of historic nuclear tests some of which were conducted underground and engineered for containment. peacescience.net/2026/07/23/b...

To move fusion commercialisation to success, some possible hurdles need to be tackled. Consider this: peacescience.net/2026/03/30/i...

If you are interested in the radioactive legacy of atmospheric nuclear testing this is for you. This project has just started and is very promising. peacescience.net/2026/03/21/g...

Which radioisotopes still remain and where have the 528 atmospheric nuclear tests been conducted? Peace Science Collaboration has put data together and funneled them through Python to put them on a map. Ready to support science and disarmament diplomacy. peacescience.net/2026/02/23/e...

Helion is the first private fusion energy startup to use deuterium-tritium fuel. Their 7th generation Polaris prototype set new fusion industry benchmark becoming the first privately developed fusion energy machine to demonstrate deuterium-tritium (D-T) fusion. www.helionenergy.com/articles/hel...

Tritium production is a key bottleneck for making nuclear fusion power generation a reality. Here is important progress under preparation: “Moving breeding blanket technology from theory to real-world application is crucial in realizing a path to fusion energy“ www.ornl.gov/news/ornl-an...

Great to see that my book on "International Control of Tritium for Nuclear Nonproliferation and Disarmament" is gaining fresh interest again. The topic discussed in this blog post is just one example for this renewed interest. peacescience.net/2026/01/28/r...

US’s 20-point peace plan: 1. Gaza will be a deradicalised terror-free zone that does not pose a threat to its neighbours. 2. Gaza will be redeveloped for the benefit of the people of Gaza, who have suffered more than enough. Read the full plan here: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donald_....

The work I am presenting at #SnT2025 builds on a unique database of high quality #tadioxenon stack emissions from PNNL‘s STAX project. Highlights of new findings are covered by one oral and two poster presentations including a solution to a big question that was open for 20 years. ctbto.info/SnT2025

It was a great pleasure for me to give a talk at the first online edition of the NewComers4Nuclear (NC4N) Summer School 2025, co-organised with WiN Global and Women in Nuclear Innovation (WiNI) Group of Expertise. The full program can be found here: drive.google.com/file/d/1dkbs...

How to produce tritium, the fuel required to start up fusion reactors? Terence Tarnowsky, a physicist at Los Almos National Laboratory (LANL), proposes to us a reactor design driven by a particle accelerator to produce tritium from nuclear waste. www.acs.org/pressroom/pr...

Prof. Frank von Hippel (Princeton University) gave an invited talk at the German Physical Society Spring Meeting in Bonn on „U.S. Physicists and Nuclear Arms Control During the Next Four Years“. On the question „How much is enough“ he replies: „What about deterrence without nuclear weapons?“

The #CTBT: Science and Technology Conference is the flagship event of the @ctbto.bsky.social. If you have stakes in nuclear explosion monitoring or on-site inspection research and innovation, consider participating and submitting an abstract to #SnT2025. The deadline is approaching.

New study: near-surface beryllium-7 could be used to predict the upcoming phase of #ENSO (El Niño Southern Oscillation), see doi.org/10.1016/j.je..., and to predict onset of #monsoon, see www.nature.com/articles/s41... #Be-7 is observed by the international monitoring system operated by the #CTBTO.

Cosmic rays generate beryllium-7 in the stratosphere. The figure shows the global atmospheric circulation cells like Hadley cell and Ferrel cell. These transport beryllium-7 down toothed Earth surface where it observed by radioactivity sensors.

A key topic at the VCDNP event was on confidence building measures and consultation & clarification becoming more important to be prepared and informally practiced. Satellite imagery analyses might encourage states to be more transparent and clarify the interpretation.

Honoured to have met with and be inspired by Charles Oppenheimer, Founder and Co-Executive Director of the Oppenheimer Project Project, grandson of Robert J. Oppenheimer. Big thanks to Vienna Center for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation (VCDNP) and the Oppenheimer Project for the informative event.
