Breakthroughs from two rival experiments, Germany’s Wendelstein 7-X and the Joint European Torus, suggest the elusive dream ...

A longstanding mystery in nuclear fusion research may have been solved, thanks to a new theoretical model that could help scientists resolve why simulations often underestimate the turbulence at the ...

The race to recreate the sun’s power on Earth just hit a major milestone. Scientists operating a powerful fusion reactor, often nicknamed China’s “artificial sun,” set a world record that ...

The co-founder of a music talent agency and two of his colleagues were among those killed after a small plane crashed in a San Diego neighborhood.

AI and smart fusion control A new AI-driven approach to tokamak plasma control offers an improved route to commercial fusion technology. Next Step Fusion tells Nei about the achievement in real-world ...

The clean energy source we’ve been pursuing for decades is advancing with 200,000 “plasma shots” at General Atomics in San Diego, and the creation of an international fusion facility in France.

However, some tokamaks, including the DIII-D tokamak in San Diego, have now experimented with the inverse shape known as negative triangularity.

Almost unlimited clean energy has been brought a step closer with the setting of a new world record for the sustained running of a nuclear fusion reactor. China's "artificial sun"—formally known ...
