In the DIII-D experiments, this shape demonstrated unexpectedly low levels of instability. Researchers were able to achieve ...

Fusion energy, long considered the holy grail of clean energy solutions, is closer to reality than ever before. With recent ...

Researchers at the University of British Columbia have shown that a small bench-top reactor can enhance nuclear fusion rates ...

Scientists in the US have developed an AI method that rapidly maps magnetic shadows to protect fusion reactors from extreme ...

A 1989 experiment offered the promise of nuclear fusion without the need for high temperatures, but this "cold fusion" was ...

Scientists have developed a lightning-fast AI tool called HEAT-ML that can spot hidden “safe zones” inside a fusion reactor ...

If Sir Isaac Newton’s wildest dream is finally coming true, we could be on the brink of a new type of gold rush.

The sun, along with all other stars, is powered by a reaction called nuclear fusion. If this can be replicated on earth, it could provide virtually limitless clean, safe and affordable energy to meet ...

These particles — essential to keeping the plasma hot enough for sustained fusion — tend to escape through holes in the reactor’s magnetic field, draining energy and halting the reaction.

Fusion takes place at incredibly high temperatures. So to one day make fusion a feasible energy source, reactors will need to be built with materials that can survive the heat and irradiation ...
