2025: The year in nuclear
As Nuclear News has done since 2022, we have compiled a review of the nuclear news that filled headlines and sparked conversations in the year just completed. Departing from the chronological format of years past, we open with the most impactful news of 2025: a survey of actions and orders of the Trump administration that are reshaping nuclear research, development, deployment, and commercialization. We then highlight some of the top news in nuclear restarts, new reactor testing programs, the fuel supply chain and broader fuel cycle, and more.

Propagation behavior of 3–4 kHz electron density fluctuation in the core and edge regions was investigated in the GAMMA 10 tandem mirror device. Frequency analysis was employed for high spatiotemporal-resolution fluctuations measured by gold neutral beam probe (GNBP) in the central cell and Langmuir probes in the end region. We found same-frequency periodic fluctuations in both signals and applied the correlation analysis technique. By considering the geometry of the measurement system, propagation speeds of the periodic fluctuation along and across the magnetic field lines were estimated.
