The international ITER tokamak has begun construction and plans to start turning on in 2025. Bringing in parts for the 25,000-ton reactor required building a special heavy-duty road. ITER is the ...
Earlier this morning, the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) Organization announced what has long been known: The largest tokamak in the world will be delayed further, prolonging ...
Ever since nuclear fusion was first discovered in the 1930s, scientists have imagined ways to harness its energy. The earliest designs for nuclear fusion reactors began in earnest in the 1950s, with ...
Seeking to improve the tokamak fusion reactor known as ITER, researchers have found a way to stop rogue tungsten atoms from shearing off the walls and messing with the plasma. The finding is another ...
The sixth module of the Central Solenoid, completed at General Atomics in April 2025. When combined with the five other completed modules, the Central Solenoid will form the center of the ITER tokamak ...
After two decades of design, production, fabrication and assembly on three continents, the historic, multinational ITER fusion energy project today celebrates the completion and delivery of its ...
US private fusion company Commonwealth Fusion Systems has installed the disc-shaped stainless steel cryostat base, marking the start of the assembly of the SPARC tokamak. Meanwhile, Fusion for Energy ...
ITER, the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, may be the grandest scientific experiment in the world. Initially conceived forty years ago, the project aims to build the largest, most ...
Westinghouse Electric Co. and officials with the ITER project in France signed a contract for $180 million for the assembly of the vacuum vessel for the fusion reactor. This is a key milestone in the ...
