All of these new developments don’t mean that the sun is ready to give up its fusion monopoly, as many significant ...

The machines at their center, called tokamaks, have evolved from experimental curiosities into instruments capable of sustaining confined plasma – matter so hot it mimics the ...

The first of 24 gyrotrons has been installed on the top floor of the ITER experimental fusion reactor under construction in Cadarache, southern France. Meanwhile, General Atomics has completed the six ...

The sun-mimicking technology known as nuclear fusion hopes to create “limitless” energy by smashing light nuclei together using immense heat, but containing such hot plasma is proving tricky. A ...

Nuclear fusion promises a green and infinitely renewable supply of energy—if we can harness it. Fusion happens all the time inside the sun. But to recreate the process on Earth, we must control ...

For decades, nuclear fusion has been described as the holy grail of clean power, a way to generate vast amounts of energy by ...

Dark matter seems invisible, but it makes up most matter, and we have evidence that it gives the cosmos its shape. Now ...

Fusion power is a means of deriving electrical power from the heat released during nuclear fusion reactions, and it's been a long-time dream to produce a working reactor. Fusion occurs when two light ...
