Recently, another reactor in France reported a major tungsten breakthrough: its toroidal tokamak, clad in tungsten, ...

The Wendelstein 7-X stellarator in Germany has broken the record for plasma duration in a nuclear fusion reactor. Fusion reactions were sustained at high performance levels for 43 seconds, which is a ...

A new theory suggests fusion reactors could help scientists search for axions, mysterious particles that may explain dark ...

Fusion power has long been sold as the technology that could light our cities with the same process that powers the stars.

Physicists have spent decades chasing two grand technological dreams: harnessing fusion power and uncovering the nature of ...

Inside the target chamber at the National Ignition Facility, where researchers work on getting higher energy outputs from fusion power. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Lawrence Livermore ...

The promise of nuclear fusion feels simple. Just as stars fuse hydrogen into heavier elements to produce energy, a fusion reactor generates massive amounts of energy by combining lightweight particles ...
