The global fusion energy market, driven by international collaborations and private ventures, is advancing rapidly with a ...

Breakthroughs from two rival experiments, Germany’s Wendelstein 7-X and the Joint European Torus, suggest the elusive dream of controlled nuclear fusion may be within reach ...

The research team details the discovery of a shortcut that can enable engineers to design leak-proof magnetic confinement systems ten times faster than the current standard method, without ...

One of the most advanced kind of fusion energy globally approaches is magnetic confinement. These ring-shaped machines use powerful magnetic fields to contain super-hot plasma, creating the ...

Plasma confinement, essential for sustaining fusion reactions, relies on methods like magnetic confinement (e.g., tokamaks and stellarators) and inertial confinement, both of which face stability ...

Google has agreed to purchase 200 megawatts of fusion energy from Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS). That's assuming, of ...

With their innovative design, tokamak reactors are leading the charge in fusion research, aiming to unlock the potential of ...

A new shortcut can help engineers design leak-proof magnetic confinement systems for fusion reactors 10 times as fast as the gold standard method, without sacrificing accuracy. While several other ...

The company raised $425 million in January 2025, around the same time that it turned on Polaris, a prototype reactor. Helion ...

Magnetic confinement fusion represents a promising avenue for realising sustainable and high‐yield energy production. In these systems, plasma – a highly ionised state of matter – is ...

Science can’t be rushed, but fusion’s true believers think capturing the sun in a bottle could light humanity’s future.
