China's HL-3 fusion reactor advances toward ignition by 2027, marking progress in clean energy as breakthroughs in plasma ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: In the race for clean energy, no technology is quite as promising as nuclear fusion, but the road toward energy freedom is filled with barriers that ...

China’s latest advance in magnetic confinement fusion has pushed a key performance limit past what theory once allowed, turning its so‑called “artificial sun” into a test bed for conditions that ...

China’s flagship fusion experiment has crossed a line that many physicists once treated as a hard stop, pushing plasma density beyond a limit that had constrained reactors for decades. By finding a ...

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: The plasma density barrier is a mathematical limit to the density of plasma that can exist in a tokamak before destabilizing. A new study led by a ...
