A Richmond-based company has achieved significant fusion neutron yield and plasma stability. General Fusion attained world-first achievements using its uniquely practical Magnetized Target Fusion ...
A UK-based fusion technology startup, First Light Fusion, has announced a new record in nuclear fusion pressure, reaching an impressive 1.85 terapascals with their advanced pulsed machine.
Start-ups say we’re closer than ever to near-limitless, zero-carbon energy from fusion. When will we get there? DIII-D National Fusion Facility, operated by General Atomics, and Lawrence ...
Nuclear fusion as a source of electricity always seems to be just around the corner. As the old joke goes, “Thirty years ago, fusion was 30 years away from becoming a viable commercial reality”—a ...
Two developments in the coming year will mark a decisive shift from the public to the private sector in the decades-old quest to generate cheap and abundant power from nuclear fusion. The first ...
A handful of start-ups are racing to usher in an era of near-limitless fusion energy, but big questions remain. By Raymond Zhong In 1952, a machine with a funny name and a funny shape was zapped ...
A research team has clarified the mechanism behind the generation of runaway electrons during the startup phase of a tokamak fusion reactor. The paper, "Binary Nature of Collisions Facilitates ...
In their new result, ATLAS physicists studied collisions of lead ions that took place at a collision energy of 5.02 teraelectronvolts (TeV) per nucleon pair during Run 2 of the LHC. They observed ...
VMware made its Fusion and Workstation software that creates and manages virtual machines free for personal use earlier this year. Now, the company announced that as of Monday, it’s free for ...
