In an audacious stride for the energy sector, a fusion startup has announced the design of what they claim to be the world’s first practical nuclear fusion reactor. We delve into the details of this ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

China has tested a giant robotic system that could help maintain future fusion reactors, moving the country closer to its long-standing goal of building an “artificial sun.” The remote-handling test ...
