Five new papers validate key parts of Commonwealth Fusion System’s ARC reactor ...

General Fusion announced on Tuesday that it had successfully created plasma, a superheated fourth state of matter required for fusion, inside a prototype reactor. The milestone marks the beginning of ...

Nuclear fusion may be closer to commercialization than previously thought, with private firms targeting operational reactors in the early 2030s. Major technical and economic hurdles remain, including ...

TAE Technologies claims its setup produces 100 times the power of other designs at half the cost, but the road to commercial fusion is littered with hype. Reading time 3 minutes A California-based ...

China is racing forward in its effort to pave the way in fusion energy science, and state-sponsored media reported earlier this week that one of the country’s next-gen reactors is now under ...

It’s rarely appreciated just how much more complicated nuclear fusion is than nuclear fission. Whereas the latter involves a process that happens all around us without any human involvement, and where ...

Designing predictable nuclear fusion reactors requires highly accurate computer models, yet existing simulations often ...

Researchers at the University of British Columbia have shown that a small bench-top reactor can enhance nuclear fusion rates by electrochemically loading a metal with deuterium fuel. Unlike massive ...

Nuclear fusion, which operates on the same principle that powers the sun, is expected to become a sustainable energy source for the future. To achieve fusion power generation, it is essential to ...

Fusion power has long been sold as the technology that could light our cities with the same process that powers the stars. Now a new line of research suggests those same reactors might also be ...
