For most of the past 70 years, fusion energy has been shorthand for a promise that never quite arrived, a running joke about ...

General Fusion announced on Tuesday that it had successfully created plasma, a superheated fourth state of matter required for fusion, inside a prototype reactor. The milestone marks the beginning of ...

For XRF analysis, fused bead creation via fusion provides a nearly perfect, homogeneous sample representation. This method is ideal for solid samples. Gas and electric fusion machines can be used to ...

Start-ups say we’re closer than ever to near-limitless, zero-carbon energy from fusion. When will we get there? DIII-D National Fusion Facility, operated by General Atomics, and Lawrence Livermore ...

A "mega-lab" that will aim to generate nuclear fusion power within just six years has been approved by the Chinese government. Once it's operational, the machine will generate 50 million amps of ...

In April 2023, we reported on federal efforts to streamline fusion energy regulations. At that time, the Commissioners of the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) voted to approve a proposal expected ...

There has been much talk about achieving carbon neutrality and promoting clean energy solutions for over a decade. Yet despite brainstorming sessions and research and development, we have yet to find ...
