A persistent asymmetry in fusion exhaust has challenged researchers for years. New simulations show that plasma core rotation, working together with cross-field drifts, determines where particles land ...

Researchers in Germany have recently unveiled ultra-resistant materials designed to withstand the extreme conditions inside future fusion reactors and protect the inner surface that directly faces the ...

A student’s small bedroom has become a hotspot for nuclear fusion experiments. With no fancy lab or deep-pocketed sponsors, the work is entirely driven by curiosity and grit. Hudhayfa Nazoordeen, a ...

Helion Energy achieved temperatures of about 270 million degrees Fahrenheit as it works towards developing fusion power.

For decades, nuclear fusion has held the promise of clean, limitless energy. However, one persistent challenge has slowed progress: the inability to reliably contain the high-energy particles needed ...

Researchers have made a leap forward in the pursuit of clean, endless energy. A team at General Atomics, a U.S. Department of Energy-backed facility, has unveiled a key advance in nuclear fusion, the ...

New Zealand-based fusion energy startup OpenStar Technologies says it has become the first commercial company in the world to successfully create and confine plasma using a levitated dipole reactor.

Google signed the first direct corporate power purchase agreement for nuclear fusion energy with Commonwealth Fusion Systems. The global race to achieve commercial nuclear fusion is intensifying, with ...
