Experiments show fusion plasma can stay stable at higher densities by controlling reactor walls, challenging long-standing limits.

"It'll go bang, bang, bang." Researchers make AI-powered breakthrough in pursuit of limitless energy source: 'Revolutionary technology' first appeared on The Cool Down.

Experiments at San Diego's DIII-D National Fusion Facility have demonstrated that a new plasma configuration could help increase the stability of tokamak fusion reactors and inform future designs.

China's Burning Plasma Experimental Superconducting Tokamak fusion facility (BEST) has entered a new construction phase as it speeds toward its 2027 target completion date. The state-run nuclear ...

The promise of nuclear fusion feels simple. Just as stars fuse hydrogen into heavier elements to produce energy, a fusion reactor generates massive amounts of energy by combining lightweight particles ...

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 ...

Inside a French fusion experiment, a metal more associated with lightbulb filaments than star power just did something extraordinary. Tungsten, long considered too brittle and temperamental for the ...

Researchers at the University of British Columbia have shown that a small bench-top reactor can enhance nuclear fusion rates by electrochemically loading a metal with deuterium fuel. Unlike massive ...

There’s only one fusion device on earth that has been able to meet a key scientific threshold, but Maritime Fusion CEO Justin Cohen is already preparing to put a fusion reactor on a boat. Stay with me ...

Workers wear protective equipment in a cavernous hall that contains industrial equipment. The tokamak hall at Commonwealth Fusion Systems’ fusion energy facility in Devens, Massachusetts, will house ...

Inside a vast, hangar-like building in Devens, a trio of employees are working to test and assemble the pieces of what is likely one of the most advanced machines being built on Earth. One part of a ...
