Designing predictable nuclear fusion reactors requires highly accurate computer models, yet existing simulations often ...

This collection supports and amplifies research related to SDG 7 - Affordable and clean energy. Nuclear fusion is the process powering stellar cores and providing a potential pathway towards meeting ...

Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS) has verified the core plasma physics assumptions for its upcoming ...

South Korea's exclusive focus on magnetic confinement fusion technology has raised concerns about its position in the evolving global fusion energy landscape, as other advanced countries pursue dual ...

For decades, humans have sought to harness the power of the stars to generate electricity here on Earth. And for nearly as long, achieving that goal always seemed just a decade away. Now, a slew of ...

The Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak in Heifei, China, a testbed for the long-awaited (and now delayed) International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), successfully contained ...

Experiments at China's Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak have confirmed the existence of "a density-free region" of the tokamak, finding a method to break through the density limit and ...

The way scientists think about fusion changed forever in 2022 when what some called the experiment of the century demonstrated for the first time that fusion can be a viable source of clean energy.

A twisting ribbon of hydrogen gas, many times hotter than the surface of the sun, has given scientists a tentative glimpse of the future of controlled nuclear fusion—a so-far theoretical source of ...

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 ...
