This experiment is the first confirmation of an abstract framework. Chinese scientists make groundbreaking discovery in ...

US-based Pacific Fusion has announced a major breakthrough in fusion research following four successful ...

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.

Zap Energy’s three-meter reactor uses a lead-lithium liquid wall, cutting hardware needs and bringing cleaner, modular power ...

Researchers have demonstrated that intense laser fields, particularly at low frequencies, can significantly enhance nuclear ...

For most of the past 70 years, fusion energy has been shorthand for a promise that never quite arrived, a running joke about a technology that was always a few decades away. That timeline has shifted.

Across the global energy race, a cluster of breakthroughs is turning what once sounded like science fiction into a concrete engineering roadmap. From star-like fusion reactors to radically more ...

We are in the middle of a long-term geopolitical race as China, Europe and the U.K. continue pouring billions into fusion development.

Fusion energy, the same process that powers our sun and stars, is rapidly moving from scientific theory to commercial reality. In a fusion reaction, two light atoms—typically deuterium and ...

Claims of “net energy gain” in fusion experiments often exclude the massive energy consumed by the full system, leading to misleading headlines. Even under optimistic timelines, commercial fusion ...

Type One Energy plans to build a fusion power plan on the site of the Tennessee Valley Authority’s Bull Run coal-fired power plant in Oak Ridge, Tenn. Jim West/UCG/Universal Images Group via Getty ...
