EUROfusion and the Institute of Plasma Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP), have officially released the first ...

Experts reviewed DEMO Low Aspect Ratio physics and technologies concept to support next steps in European R&D for a fusion ...

Over the following days, around 200 experiment proposals were evaluated by Task Force Leaders, illustrating the remarkable ...

This work has been carried out within the framework of the EUROfusion Consortium, funded by the European Union via the Euratom Research and Training Programme (Grant Agreement No 101052200 — ...

European scientists will work with the JT-60SA tokamak build in Japan through the work package SA and during the phase II of the Broader Approach agreement between Europe and Japan. This means they ...

Current fusion experiments were primarily designed to investigate plasma physics. However, DEMO must demonstrate the necessary technologies not only for controlling a more powerful plasma than has ...

Following Eddington’s paper, Robert d’Escourt Atkinson and Fritz Houtermans provided the first calculations of the rate of nuclear fusion in stars. And at the same time, Ernest Rutherford was ...

The objectives of the Fusion Science Programme are the development of plasma regimes for ITER and investigating solutions to manage the heat exhaust in future fusion power plants. This work has been ...

The EUROfusion roadmap forms the basis for the programme of EUROfusion and provides a clear and structured way forward to commercial energy from fusion. In the course of the roadmap implementation, ...

To realise fusion, the EUROfusion consortium brings together 4800 researchers, staff and students from its 28 member institutes, 3 associated partners, and 162 affiliated entities from across Europe.

The fusion reaction releases neutrons, the energy of which will be used in future power stations to heat water to heat drive the power plant. The neutrons would be quite dangerous to humans, but when ...
