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.

Neutron multiplication measurement in 20-cm-thick beryllium oxide in rectangular geometry using 14-MeV neutrons has been carried out, and it is found that the experimental value of neutron multiplication is ∼25% lower than the calculated value. This confirms the measurement done earlier with beryllium metal.
