Chinese scientists break a historic barrier and achieve the highest plasma density in a nuclear fusion reactor.

Experiments show fusion plasma can stay stable at higher densities by controlling reactor walls, challenging long-standing limits.

Fusion power has long been sold as the technology that could light our cities with the same process that powers the stars. Now a new line of research suggests those same reactors might also be ...

The promise of nuclear fusion feels simple. Just as stars fuse hydrogen into heavier elements to produce energy, a fusion reactor generates massive amounts of energy by combining lightweight particles ...

There’s only one fusion device on earth that has been able to meet a key scientific threshold, but Maritime Fusion CEO Justin Cohen is already preparing to put a fusion reactor on a boat. Stay with me ...

A host of startups are racing to achieve commercial fusion power. Zap Energy just drew a line in the sand after announcing its latest device recorded the highest-ever plasma pressures for its ...

Add Yahoo as a preferred source to see more of our stories on Google. The sun-mimicking technology known as nuclear fusion hopes to create “limitless” energy by smashing light nuclei together using ...

Nuclear fusion, which operates on the same principle that powers the sun, is expected to become a sustainable energy source for the future. To achieve fusion power generation, it is essential to ...

Researchers at Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) are centralizing their nuclear materials research within ...

What if the key to solving the world’s energy crisis was hidden in a process so ambitious, so technically demanding, that even experts once dismissed it as science fiction? For decades, nuclear fusion ...

The industry is getting billions, but it’s way too early to count on fusion to meet growing electricity demand. This week, Commonwealth Fusion Systems announced it has another customer for its first ...
