I have blogged before about the problems with magnetic confinement in nuclear fusion reactors such as stellarators and tokamaks. Now scientists from Princeton University and the Department of Energy's Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) may have found a way to deal with a problems that have been known for decades.

Framatome is a French nuclear reactor company. They are collaborating with the Technical University of Munich (TUM) in the commercial deployment of a new nuclear research reactor fuel based on an alloy that is composed of uranium and molybdenum (U-Mo). This new fuel can be used in place of highly enriched uranium (HEU) which will reduce the risk of nuclear proliferation.
