The promise of nuclear fusion feels simple. Just as stars fuse hydrogen into heavier elements to produce energy, a fusion reactor generates massive amounts of energy by combining lightweight particles ...
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 ...
Tavis Malcolm, the founder of Morrison Outdoors, at his Albuquerque office in April. His company, which makes and sells ...
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 ...
On May 22, the latest experimental campaign concluded at the world's most powerful nuclear fusion device of the stellarator type. Through collaboration between researchers from Europe and the U.S., ...
Supporters of the vast, but thus far elusive, potential of nuclear fusion have released a “road map” that quantifies the economic impact the nascent industry could deliver for California — provided ...
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.
Nuclear fusion is one of the most significant scientific and engineering challenges of our time. If successful, it could offer a future powered by clean, virtually limitless energy. Leading the charge ...
Scientists in Germany have taken a giant leap towards producing near-limitless, clean energy using nuclear fusion -- the same fiery reaction that takes place in the core of the Sun. Using the ...
Germany has announced a €1.7 billion investment in nuclear fusion, aiming to develop the world's first commercial fusion reactor, a significant reversal of its long-standing anti-nuclear energy stance ...
Google signed the first direct corporate power purchase agreement for nuclear fusion energy with Commonwealth Fusion Systems. The global race to achieve commercial nuclear fusion is intensifying, with ...
