Another very productive trip to the Rossendorf Beamline European Synchrotron with the gang from South West Nuclear Hub University of Bristol Earth Sciences School of Physics - University of Bristol! Moody skies over the mountains, but spec(tac)ular brightness inside. Someone else appreciates lego and UO2, which pleases me greatly. #FlatActinides

"the development of small & advanced modular reactors offers a unique opportunity for nuclear energy to really live up to its 'clean' label and put a cap on the costs of nuclear clean-up." My new article in Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. South West Nuclear Hub Cabot Institute for the Environment🏳️‍🌈✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽 thebulletin.org/premium/2025-0…

Really thrilled to hear this news today and even more pleased to have worked on (and sometimes led) research that is making this happen. Always great to chat with Victoria Gill 💙💛 from BBC News (UK) to!

Listen to me witter on about plutonium immobilisation and how ancient natural uranium minerals can give us confidence in their safe long-term disposal in a geological disposal facility. #turningplutoniumintorocks University of Bristol Earth Sciences Cabot Institute for the Environment🏳️‍🌈✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽 South West Nuclear Hub

Making plutonium-rocks by baking a cake, and then disposing of them in a giant underground landfill. Sounds a bit bonkers, right?
