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 ...

How the Reactor Works Their custom-built device, called the Thunderbird Reactor, might look modest, but it’s packed with innovation. The reactor contains three key parts: a plasma thruster, a vacuum ...

Scientists say the path to commercial fusion power may hinge on better ways to measure the behavior of superheated plasma.

The science news ecosystem repeats unfounded claims about nuclear fusion. OpenStar’s reactor has an unusual design, but it’s just as unproven as all the others. Their reactor has a central magnet ...

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 ...

In this final segment of RealClearScience's interview with Laban Conblentz, Head of Communication at ITER, Coblentz shares the tale of how the world's largest fusion reactor came to be built in the ...

"Many small suns." That's how Alexander Galitsky envisions the future of fusion energy—a future where clean, abundant energy is accessible to all. Fusion, the process that powers the Sun and other ...

Fusion doesn’t need billions of euros – at least that is what venture capitalists claim. Jon Cartwright takes a look Downsizing Fusion start-up Tri Alpha Energy based in Orange County, US, has ...
