Recently, Commonwealth Fusion, which is building a demonstration tokamak in Massachussets, started construction of the ...

Fusion energy, the process of fusing light atomic nuclei to generate energy, has long been considered the key to a clean and virtually limitless power source. Magnetic confinement fusion, the most ...

Nuclear fusion is a source of great hope for future energy security, with this field being explored in research reactors ...

The startup is betting that by simplifying stellarators, it can make fusion power cheaper and easier to maintain.

New results published in Nuclear Fusion confirm General Fusion successfully created magnetized plasmas that achieved energy confinement times exceeding 10 milliseconds. The published energy ...

Confinement fusion has been shown by JET to produce fusion power of 15 MW for several seconds. France, home to both WEST and ITER, is well-placed to house the first prototype nuclear fusion reactor.

Japan’s JT-60SA fusion reactor project announced first plasma in October of this year to denote the successful upgrades to what is now the world’s largest operational, superconducting tokamak ...

Liu’s research has centred mainly on plasma physics and nuclear fusion. In particular, he has focused on solving problems related to the physics of runaway electrons – a kind of energy leakage ...
