For decades, scientists have been working to develop reactors that can achieve fusion to meet the increasing need for clean and limitless energy. The success of such experiments depends on multiple ...

Thales, a leading firm in advanced technologies worldwide, has made a big leap in the field of nuclear fusion. In collaboration with researchers from the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics, ...

Fusion energy is being developed as a solution to global energy problems. In particular, the magnetic confinement method, in which ultra-high temperature plasma is confined by a magnetic field, is the ...

Fusion energy, the process of fusing light atomic nuclei to generate energy, has long been considered the key to a clean and ...

First tokamak plasma at the SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak – SMART – recorded with a fast-framing camera in the visible spectral range. In a pioneering approach to achieve fusion energy, the SMART device ...

Google LLC’s DeepMind research unit is partnering with the nuclear fusion startup Commonwealth Fusion Systems LLC to see if it can help it generate almost unlimited amounts of clean energy using its ...

Nuclear fusion, which operates on the same principle that powers the sun, is expected to become a sustainable energy source for the future. To achieve fusion power generation, it is essential to ...

Combining ECCD and RMP provides greater flexibility and control over fusion plasma. The technique allows for precise adjustment of magnetic islands in the plasma, optimizing edge stability. This ...

Some believe the future of fusion in the U.S. lies in compact, spherical fusion vessels. A smaller tokamak, it is thought, could offer a more economical fusion option. The trick is squeezing ...

The interiors of fusion reactors can get seriously chaotic. But for obvious reasons—like extreme temperatures and pressures—researchers aren’t typically able to peek directly inside a reactor. Some ...
