Reactor-scale magnets successfully contained 100 million-degree Fahrenheit plasma, edging commercial fusion energy a step ...

The keys to harnessing fusion power—a clean, almost limitless supply of energy—sit in the heart of the sun. The only way we can access that heart is by listening to the sun’s heartbeat. To start up a ...

An international milestone in energy research has been achieved with the successful sustaining of a fusion reaction for 100 seconds in an “artificial sun” experiment. This breakthrough represents a ...

Four times now, researchers have produced a fleeting burst of fusion energy, an encouraging sign for making this zero-carbon energy source a reality. Stephen Shankland worked at CNET from 1998 to 2024 ...

Researchers using China’s “artificial sun” fusion reactor have broken through a long-standing density barrier in fusion plasma. The experiment confirmed that plasma can remain stable even at extreme ...

IMAGINE A POWER source that produces hardly any waste and is carbon-free. That’s the tantalising promise of controlled nuclear fusion, which physicists have been trying to achieve for 70 years. It is ...
