The clean energy source we’ve been pursuing for decades is advancing with 200,000 “plasma shots” at General Atomics in San ...

China is working on a device called the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), or the “artificial sun,” a nuclear fusion reactor with huge implications for energy generation. The ...

The magnetic field, generated by superconducting coils, prevents the plasma from touching the reactor walls. Without this confinement, the temperatures would destroy the tokamak's materials. One of ...

This not only enhances our understanding of fusion but also accelerates the development of new reactor designs ... used in the interior walls of the tokamak, as well as irradiating them (making ...

State media published celebratory photos of the doughnut-shaped “Tokamak” machine where the ... International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (Iter), a global project that dates back ...

AI also offers a way to better control the plasma in fusion reactors. As discussed, a key challenge in magnetic confinement fusion is to shape and maintain the high-temperature plasma within the ...

ITER is a tokamak design and will be the largest ever created nuclear fusion reactor, with 10x the plasma volume of the largest so far (JT-60SA in Japan) at 830 cubic meters (29,000 cubic feet). ITER ...

The San Diego Padres agreed to a minor league contract with Forrest Wall, according to the MLB.com transaction tracker. Wall has played in 31 MLB games over the past two seasons. The San Diego ...
