There is a widespread misapprehension that controlling nuclear fusion is hard. In fact so long as you are not hoping to use the process to produce electricity, controlling fusion is easy. Indeed, it ...

Teams in France are assembling the core of ITER, the gigantic experiment that seeks to harness energy from fusion, similar to ...

Just as in-flight turbulence—irregular disruptions in the airflow—results in a bumpy plane ride, plasma turbulence transports ...

There’s only one fusion device on earth that has been able to meet a key scientific threshold, but Martime Fusion CEO Justin Cohen is already preparing to put a fusion reactor on a boat. Stay with me ...

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, ...

Germany pivots to nuclear fusion, partnering with Focused Energy and RWE. Breakthroughs at Lawrence Livermore bring ...

A view of the Wendelstein 7-X fusion reactor, as seen on September 18, 2015 at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Greifswald, Germany. A twisting ribbon of hydrogen gas, many times hotter ...

Nuclear fusion promises a green and infinitely renewable supply of energy—if we can harness it. Fusion happens all the time inside the sun. But to recreate the process on Earth, we must control ...

A twisting ribbon of hydrogen gas, many times hotter than the surface of the sun, has given scientists a tentative glimpse of the future of controlled nuclear fusion—a so-far theoretical source of ...
