150 million degrees Celsius In order to achieve fusion on Earth, gases need to be heated to extremely high temperatures of about 150 million degrees Celsius. That is 10 times more than the ...

Milestone: On May 26th 2025, the Divertor Tokamak Test (DTT) project celebrated the completion of its first superconducting toroidal magnet.

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 — ...

Applications are open for the 2026 Engineering Grants funding individual post-master engineering projects for 2-years ...

The Quasi-Continuous Exhaust (QCE) is a regime that is naturally free of type-I Edge Localised Modes (ELM). It combines the high density at the plasma edge needed for power exhaust with the high ...

In a virtually unprecedented alignment of efforts, Europe’s major fusion research experiments have simultaneously entered a high-intensity experiment phase, showcasing Europe’s strong collaboration ...

Gyrotrons are fundamental to the operation of fusion energy devices. These high-power microwave systems generate millimetre-wave electromagnetic radiation, which is essential for heating and driving ...

At the Swiss Plasma Center (SPC), an intriguing experiment is unfolding that could change the future of fusion energy. It’s called the TRapped Electrons eXperiment, or T-REX, and its day-to-day ...

By launching 15 new research projects, EUROfusion is engaging data science experts across Europe to apply Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning techniques to fusion energy. These projects will ...

An alpha particle is produced by the alpha decay of a radioactive nucleus. Because the nucleus is unstable a piece of it is ejected, allowing the nucleus to reach a more stable state. The piece that ...

The Power of Prediction Fusion energy represents the pinnacle of clean energy solutions, but the road to making it a reality is fraught with technical challenges. At the heart of overcoming these ...
