Called X-point target radiator (XPTR), this discovery could also help shed excess heat, and therefore has the potential to ...

The race to recreate the sun’s power on Earth just hit a major milestone. Scientists operating a powerful fusion reactor, ...

The company announced Tuesday that it had raised $125 million to continue development of the reactor design and expand its TE Magnetics division. Tokamak Energy has been working on fusion since ...

Part of the problem has been that the tokamak reactor, the front-runner design for a fusion power plant, has become a bit like that home extension that got out of hand and sucked up a lot more ...

The plasma inside a tokamak is dynamic ... If things go according to plan, the reactor will validate Thea's design and be a fuel source for the rest of the industry. Of course, nobody will ...

As its name suggests, the company is building a tokamak reactor, the most common kind of fusion design, first pioneered in the 1960s. Tokamaks use giant magnets to keep plasma moving in a loop ...

engineering and physics for a new and unique fusion reactor: the SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak. Like atoms coming together to release their power, fusion researchers worldwide are joining forces to ...

This new method can also help with a similar but different problem in another popular magnetic fusion reactor design called a tokamak. In that design, there's a problem with runaway electrons ...
