China’s “artificial sun” pushed past a fusion density ceiling that physicists believed could not be crossed, holding plasma stable at extreme densities
Physicists working on China’s Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak, known as EAST, have held plasma stable at ...
EAST’s accomplishment is notable since the density limit has long prevented researchers from increasing plasma density past a certain point. Higher plasma density has historically been associated with ...
Billions of dollars in venture capital and state investments have recently been poured into efforts to finally make nuclear ...
In a pioneering approach to achieve fusion energy, the SMART device has successfully generated its first tokamak plasma. This step brings the international fusion community closer to achieving ...
It’s rarely appreciated just how much more complicated nuclear fusion is than nuclear fission. Whereas the latter involves a process that happens all around us without any human involvement, and where ...
South Korea's KSTAR reactor sustained plasma in high-confinement mode for 102 seconds, reaching 100 million degrees Celsius, ...
A private nuclear-fusion company has heated a plasma of hydrogen to 27 million degrees Fahrenheit (15 million degrees Celsius) in a new reactor for the first time — hotter than the core of the sun. UK ...
Opportunities to invest in commercial nuclear fusion are limited for now, but these companies stand to benefit from their ...
