The Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), commonly known as China's "artificial sun," has achieved a ...

China's EAST project has set a new global record by maintaining a high-confinement plasma state for over 17 minutes, paving ...

One of the most critical challenges in realizing nuclear fusion is the confinement of plasmas, which are the ultra-hot, ionized gases where fusion reactions occur. “Achieving high confinement is key ...

Tokamak Energy receives a new 1 MW gyrotron to superheat plasma in its ST40 fusion device, advancing the development of ...

Union workers ready for job. If fusion works at some point, it will also cost much more than solar and will require enormous volumes of freshwater for its old heat engine technology. We need to ...

Global scientists have worked for more than 70 years on trying to achieve this feat. However, only after reaching ...

While nuclear power plants have become ubiquitous, they all operate using nuclear fission — but one energy startup has plans to change this. Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS), a spinoff branch ...
