Scientists hail huge leap toward nearly limitless fusion energy source
For decades, nuclear fusion has been described as the holy grail of clean power, a way to generate vast amounts of energy by ...
China’s Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak, better known as the country’s “artificial sun,” has just done something fusion physicists long treated as impossible. By pushing plasma to ...

The 70-Year ‘Greenwald Limit' Just Shattered: How China's Artificial Sun Is Doing the Impossible With Plasma
China's EAST reactor achieved plasma densities 1.65x beyond theoretical limits, solving fusion's 70-year puzzle and bringing ...
Experiments at China's Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak have confirmed the existence of "a density-free region" of the tokamak, finding a method to break through the density limit and ...
First tokamak plasma at the SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak – SMART – recorded with a fast-framing camera in the visible spectral range. In a pioneering approach to achieve fusion energy, the SMART device ...
Scientists have overcome one of the "greatest uncertainties" in the operation of future fusion reactors. In order to shield the fusion plasma from impurities in the reactor walls, which greatly ...
Harnessing energy from plasma requires a precise understanding of its behavior during fusion to keep it hot, dense and stable. A new theoretical model about a plasma’s edge, which can become unstable ...
The world's largest and most advanced tokamak fusion reactor has gone online as the EU/Japanese 370-tonne JT-60SA reactor was fired up for the first time during an inauguration ceremony in Ibaraki ...
Getting a significant energy return from tokamak-based nuclear fusion reactors depends for a large part on plasma density, but increasing said density is tricky, as beyond a certain point the plasma ...
Tokamak plasma systems hold great promise in realising practical nuclear fusion, yet their full potential is constrained by the risk of disruptions – sudden, often catastrophic, losses of plasma ...
