A Sweden-based firm has launched a plasma confinement project to achieve commercially viable fusion energy. The TauEB project by Novatron Fusion Group aims to revolutionize plasma confinement and ...

Magnetic confinement fusion represents a promising avenue for realising sustainable and high‐yield energy production. In these systems, plasma – a highly ionised state of matter – is contained within ...

In December 2022, inside a lab the size of a football field in California, 192 lasers fired simultaneously at a tiny gold capsule. For a fraction of a second, humankind achieved what the stars have ...

China’s HL-3 fusion device in Chengdu has surpassed 100m degrees, achieving key plasma stability and energy retention for ...

Fusion energy, long considered the holy grail of clean energy solutions, is closer to reality than ever before. With recent technological advancements and a global push for sustainable energy sources, ...

Centrifugal Magnetic Mirrors could enable commercial nuclear fusion reactors on Earth and are also promising for next level propulsion in space. There is funded near term work for both goals. An early ...

Predicted motions of hundreds of particles in a fusion reactor. The motions predicted with the new method (orange, red) agree very closely with those predicted by Newton's laws (blue, green), but can ...

British inertial fusion energy developer First Light Fusion and UK-based strategic consultancy Stonehaven have released a ...

As a researcher involved in fusion energy development for over five decades, I have read with interest the many articles written about the recent results achieved at the National Ignition Facility at ...

Breakthroughs, discoveries, and DIY tips sent every weekday. Terms of Service and Privacy Policy. Last week, politicians and leaders met in Glasgow for COP26 to iron ...

The evolution over time of electron density fluctuations and electron density as a magnetic perturbation is applied. After 0.5 seconds of applied perturbation, the fluctuations reduce, and the density ...
