The UK Atomic Energy Authority's LIBRTI programme has announced a series of significant steps to advance fusion energy development. In addition to ordering a neutron source, it has also announced ...

This double approach allows them to cram more deuterium into a solid metal target made of palladium. The more deuterium packed into the metal, the greater the chance that two deuterium atoms will ...

A Los Alamos collaboration has replicated an important but largely forgotten physics experiment: the first deuterium-tritium (DT) fusion observation. As described in the article published in Physical ...

Scientists have replicated a forgotten but crucial experiment that took place in 1938. The first-ever triton-deuterium (colloquially referred to as DT) fusion experiment that was accidentally ...
