Japan’s JT-60SA fusion reactor project announced first plasma in October of this year to denote the successful upgrades to what is now the world’s largest operational, superconducting tokamak fusion ...

First tokamak plasma at the SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak – SMART – recorded with a fast-framing camera in the visible spectral range. In a pioneering approach to achieve fusion energy, the SMART device ...

Ohysicists at the University of Wisconsin–Madison produced a tokamak plasma that is stable at 10 times the [old] Greenwald limit. The findings may have implications for tokamak fusion reactors, though ...

A Richmond-based company has achieved significant fusion neutron yield and plasma stability. General Fusion attained world-first achievements using its uniquely practical Magnetized Target Fusion (MTF ...

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

This experiment is the first confirmation of an abstract framework. Chinese scientists make groundbreaking discovery in ...

Tokamak plasma systems hold great promise in realising practical nuclear fusion, yet their full potential is constrained by the risk of disruptions – sudden, often catastrophic, losses of plasma ...

The Korea Institute of Fusion Energy has installed a new diverter in the KSTAR tokamak, allowing the artificial sun to sustain high-ion temperatures exceeding 100 million degrees Celsius for longer.

NIIEFA has tested a high-temperature superconductor wire (HTSC) for the TRT tokamak, achieving record current and magnetic field parameters.

British startup Tokamak Energy is testing a new type of laser that it says is “crucial” to stabilising fusion reactions — the same atom-fusing process that powers the Sun and promises to deliver ...

The evolution over time of electron density fluctuations and electron density as a magnetic perturbation is applied. After 0.5 seconds of applied perturbation, the fluctuations reduce, and the density ...
