  2. Thorium-based nuclear power - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorium-based_nuclear_power

    A sample of thorium. Thorium-based nuclear power generation is fueled primarily by the nuclear fission of the isotope uranium-233 produced from the fertile element thorium.A thorium fuel cycle can offer several potential advantages over a uranium fuel cycle [Note 1] —including the much greater abundance of thorium found on Earth, superior physical and nuclear fuel properties, and reduced ...

  3. List of countries by thorium resources - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by...

    Thorium resources are the estimated mineral reserves of thorium on Earth. Thorium is a future potential source of low-carbon energy. [1] Thorium has been demonstrated to perform as a nuclear fuel in several reactor designs. [2] [3] It is present with a higher abundance than uranium in the crust of the earth. Thorium resources have not been ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terraria

    Terraria has support for mods, which is facilitated by the third-party tModLoader. [12] [13] [14] It later received official support when it was released as free downloadable content alongside the "Journey's End" update on Steam in 2020. [15] Mods for Terraria vary widely in their scope, content, and purpose. Some, such as Thorium and Calamity ...

  5. Thorium fuel cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorium_fuel_cycle

    The thorium fuel cycle is a nuclear fuel cycle that uses an isotope of thorium, 232. Th. , as the fertile material. In the reactor, 232. Th. is transmuted into the fissile artificial uranium isotope 233. U. which is the nuclear fuel. Unlike natural uranium, natural thorium contains only trace amounts of fissile material (such as 231.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SteamOS

    SteamOS. SteamOS is a Linux distribution developed by Valve. It incorporates Valve's popular namesake Steam video game storefront and is the primary operating system for the Steam Deck, Valve's portable gaming device, as well as Valve's earlier Steam Machines. SteamOS is open source with some closed source components.

  7. Breeder reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Breeder_reactor

    A breeder reactor is a nuclear reactor that generates more fissile material than it consumes. [1] These reactors can be fueled with more-commonly available isotopes of uranium and thorium, such as uranium-238 and thorium-232, as opposed to the rare uranium-235 which is used in conventional reactors. These materials are called fertile materials ...

  8. Isotopes of thorium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isotopes_of_thorium

    Thorium-234. 234Th is an isotope of thorium whose nuclei contain 144 neutrons. 234 Th has a half-life of 24.1 days, and when it decays, it emits a beta particle, and in doing so, it transmutes into protactinium -234. 234 Th has a mass of 234.0436 atomic mass units, and it has a decay energy of about 270 keV.
