China's EAST nuclear fusion reactor has successfully kept plasma stable at extreme densities, passing a major fusion ...

A view of the Wendelstein 7-X fusion reactor, as seen on September 18, 2015 at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Greifswald, Germany. A twisting ribbon of hydrogen gas, many times hotter ...

Right now, everyone is drooling over AI – and rightfully so. Artificial intelligence is already rewriting the rules of work, creativity, productivity… And it’s still early days in terms of this tech’s ...

Nuclear fusion, the process that powers the Sun, has the potential to generate clean and abundant energy. However, it requires two atomic nuclei to collide head-on at high energies, and current fusion ...

For years, scientists have been trying to replicate the concept of nuclear fusion — the phenomenon that keeps the Sun and other stars alive — and turn it into a working reactor on Earth that can ...

What if the key to solving the world’s energy crisis was hidden in a process so ambitious, so technically demanding, that even experts once dismissed it as science fiction? For decades, nuclear fusion ...

Nuclear fusion, the process whereby atomic nuclei coalesce to form a heavier nucleus, lies at the heart of both energy generation and the synthesis of elements in the cosmos. In recent decades, ...

Google signed the first direct corporate power purchase agreement for nuclear fusion energy with Commonwealth Fusion Systems. The global race to achieve commercial nuclear fusion is intensifying, with ...

After decades of being purely aspirational, commercial nuclear fusion is becoming a matter of "when, not if," driven by an accelerating rate of technological breakthroughs. The race for fusion is ...

Nuclear fusion, an energy generation method driven by the combination of two hydrogen atoms, has long been sought for its potential as a near-limitless source of energy. In the pursuit of cheap and ...

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 ...
