Billion-times more efficient nuclear fusion could be unlocked with low-frequency lasers
A team of researchers has identified a mechanism that could lower the extreme temperature requirements for controlled nuclear fusion. The study reveals that intense low-frequency lasers are ...
Overnight, news broke that the National Ignition Facility, a U.S. government research lab, was the first to achieve net-positive nuclear fusion. When lasers hit the tiny fuel pellet, it created an ...
Recent White House and Energy Department pronouncements on speeding up the “commercialization” of fusion energy are so over the top as to make you wonder about the scientific competence in the upper ...
Image of digital twin control, in which real plasma is controlled by virtual plasma reproduced on a computer. In this research, we developed a digital twin control system that can estimate optimal ...
The most exciting current subject in applied physics is “controlled fusion,” i.e., getting usable energy out of the nuclear reactions that make H-bombs explode. Industrialists looking forward to ...
