Most efforts to build a fusion power plant focus on the tokamak design, which consists of a donut-shaped structure housing powerful magnets that confine high-temperature plasma within the reactor. The ...

Tokamak Energy, a UK-based nuclear fusion startup, has secured $125 million in funding to further develop its distinctive egg-shaped reactor design. The investment has come at a time when the world is ...

Type One Energy, a University of Wisconsin-Madison nuclear fusion spinoff company, is partnering with the Tennessee Valley ...

Fusion power has long been sold as the technology that could light our cities with the same process that powers the stars.

A Stockholm-based company has partnered with Oxford Sigma, a UK-based firm to advance fusion power plant technology. The collaboration will accelerate Novatron Fusion Group’s development of commercial ...

The fusion breeder blanket is a critical component in the design of fusion reactors, serving multiple roles such as tritium breeding, neutron shielding, and heat removal. Its design and optimisation ...

Magnet systems are a critical component of fusion reactor design, playing a decisive role in plasma confinement and overall reactor stability. Recent advances in superconducting technology, with ...

Predicted motions of hundreds of particles in a fusion reactor. The motions predicted with the new method (orange, red) agree very closely with those predicted by Newton's laws (blue, green), but can ...

A student’s small bedroom has become a hotspot for nuclear fusion experiments. With no fancy lab or deep-pocketed sponsors, the work is entirely driven by curiosity and grit. Hudhayfa Nazoordeen, a ...

A new theoretical study suggests fusion reactors could do more than generate energy, they might also produce particles linked to dark matter. Researchers at the University of Cincinnati say they have ...

In classical descriptions, the energy loss of high-energy electrons interacting with neutral hydrogen was approximated as an average, with the electron always ending up with an intermediate energy ...
