Nuclear fusion, the process that powers every star in the observable universe, has moved from theoretical physics into the realm of real laboratory results. On December 5, 2022, scientists achieved ...

China breaks a historic barrier in nuclear fusion, bringing the dream of nearly infinite energy closer to reality.

Experiments at San Diego's DIII-D National Fusion Facility have demonstrated that a new plasma configuration could help increase the stability of tokamak fusion reactors and inform future designs.

For long-time followers of fusion energy, Tokamak Hall is the high-water mark after decades of ups and downs. From an observation deck on the side, the surgically-clean, hospital-white room feels both ...

Researchers at the DIII-D National Fusion Facility have identified a new method to tame ...

A look inside Tokamak Energy’s ST40 fusion system reveals the plasma within. Researchers from the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory helped guide the Tokamak Energy team to achieve the desired ...

US private fusion company Commonwealth Fusion Systems has installed the disc-shaped stainless steel cryostat base, marking the start of the assembly of the SPARC tokamak. Meanwhile, Fusion for Energy ...

China's Burning Plasma Experimental Superconducting Tokamak fusion facility (BEST) has entered a new construction phase as it speeds toward its 2027 target completion date. The state-run nuclear ...

Humanity probably isn’t on the cusp of a nuclear fusion revolution just yet. But along the way, we are getting some peeks at mind-blowing fusion experiments, so what’s the big rush? We submit this new ...

At 4 a.m., while most of New Jersey slept, a Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) physicist sat at his computer connected to a control room 3,500 miles away in Oxford, England. Years of ...
