Nuclear fusion, the mechanism that powers the sun, is now reportedly one step closer to being understood by scientists thanks to a 3D visualization produced by one of the top laboratories in the world ...

Focused Energy, a fusion power startup, has signed an agreement to secure two of the world's most powerful lasers, specifically designed for their critical role in nuclear fusion research. This ...

Commonwealth Fusion Systems’ planned $2.5 billion-plus Chesterfield County facility, which could be the world’s first grid-scale commercial nuclear fusion energy plant, is advancing through the county ...

RocketStar, a US based startup, has successfully demonstrated an electric propulsion unit for spacecraft that uses nuclear fusion-enhanced pulsed plasma. During ground tests the process did create ...

Nuclear fusion, an energy generation method driven by the combination of two hydrogen atoms, has long been sought for its potential as a near-limitless source of energy. In the pursuit of cheap and ...

Commonwealth Fusion Systems received the zoning approval needed for its planned Chesterfield County facility that’s expected to be the world’s first grid-scale commercial nuclear fusion power plant.

It’s rarely appreciated just how much more complicated nuclear fusion is than nuclear fission. Whereas the latter involves a process that happens all around us without any human involvement, and where ...

Successful fusion experiments in the US and UK raise hopes for achieving clean and abundant energy through nuclear fusion. Challenges remain in scaling up fusion processes to commercially viable ...

Instead, it focuses on a way to improve the fusion process itself by increasing the density of deuterium, a heavy form of hydrogen used as fuel. The team developed a method that combines plasma field ...
