By Macskelek - Own work, CC BY-SA 4.0, Like all gee-whiz moonbeams-to-cucumbers notions, this granddaddy of them all is irremediably failing, at prodigious cost to us all.

With each passing decade, this record-breaking monument to big international science looks less and less like a cathedral—and more like a mausoleum.

The 2025 planned date to create a plasma has been set back for "months, even years".

So the DOE is offering money to AI researchers, in the hope that the magic of AI can help make the magic of nuclear fusion a reality.

An American first on a par with the historical significance of the moon landing - scientists at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory have exceeded fusion break even.

Are greens replacing fantasies of energy sources which don't work, with fantasies of energy sources which don't exist?

Fusion power plants will eventually replace most conventional power plants and related large-scale energy infrastructure that are still so dominant today...

Inertial confinement fusion researchers have claimed a near break even experimental nuclear fusion burn, in which energy produced by the fusion reaction was comparable to the energy injected to initiate the burn.

Is there hope for commercially viable fusion power? Yes, because other “magnetic bottles” and fusion fuel cycles exist. The related physics is much more difficult, but we won’t know if any of these options are workable...

Now is the time to go all-in on decarbonization. Funding fusion with its breakthrough potential must be part of that effort.

San Diego, June 15 - After a decade of design and fabrication, General Atomics is ready to ship the first module of the Central Solenoid, the world's most powerful magnet...

Laser-cooled plasma-in-a-bottle could answer questions about the sun, fusion power RICE UNIVERSITY Research News HOUSTON – (March 1, 2021) – Rice University physicists have discovered a way to trap the…

The European Union is so desperate for their clean energy push to yield a viable solution, they have just given €3,999,870 to a cold fusion research team.

The Korea Superconducting Tokamak Advanced Research(KSTAR), a superconducting fusion device also known as the Korean artificial sun, set the new world record as it succeeded in maintaining the high temperature plasma for...

Rayleigh-Taylor-instability experiments confirm that the instability of elastic-plastic material is a function of initial conditions, such as amplitude and wavelength; characterization could apply to problems relevant to...
