The Sunbird nuclear fusion rocket concept has the potential to more than halve the time to travel to Mars and cut travel time to Pluto to about four years, the UK's Pulsar Fusion says. The concept ...
A critical shortage of fuel for nuclear fusion reactors may have a rather counterintuitive solution. A physicist at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) says that fusion reactor fuel could be ...
If you would like to learn more about the IAEA’s work, sign up for our weekly updates containing our most important news, multimedia and more. A paper on fusion neutron sources by a team from the ...
When it comes to alternative power sources, nuclear fusion is still a dream scenario. While using nuclear fusion to create commercial-scale energy has yet to be achieved, scientists say it could ...
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 ...
Google LLC’s DeepMind research unit is partnering with the nuclear fusion startup Commonwealth Fusion Systems LLC to see if it can help it generate almost unlimited amounts of clean energy using its ...
In February, France's WEST nuclear fusion reactor made a big step toward getting clean, star-like energy for everyone. The machine held superheated plasma for 1,337 seconds, or just over 22 minutes.
Lithium-6 is essential for producing nuclear fusion fuel, but isolating it from the much more common isotope, lithium-7, usually requires liquid mercury, which is extremely toxic. Now, researchers ...
Canadian startup General Fusion has been working on its unique approach to producing clean energy through nuclear fusion for two decades, and it's now got something major to show for it. The company ...
A memorandum of understanding has been signed by representatives from politics, business and science aimed at establishing a laser-based nuclear fusion power plant at the former Biblis nuclear power ...
