Nuclear fusion reactors are highly powerful technologies that can generate energy by fusing (i.e., joining) two light atomic ...

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 ...

Stellarators have several advantages over their more popular cousin, the tokamak ... details of the reactor were published today in the journal Fusion Engineering and Design.

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 ...

The most common design for fusion reactors, the tokamak, works by superheating plasma (one of the four states of matter, consisting of positive ions and negatively charged free electrons ...

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 ...
