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 ...

A team at the Colorado School of Mines is working to create hydrogen membranes for use in nuclear fusion power plants. The project, funded by the U.S. Department of Energy’s Advanced Research Projects ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Reactors designed to produce energy from the fusion of atoms could have an unexpected scientific side benefit. An international team of researchers has shown that low-mass dark-sector particles, such ...

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 ...

As one of the Devens Enterprise Zone’s largest and arguably most energized tenants, Commonwealth Fusion Systems remains on its ambitious path to become the first commercial producer of energy ...

Image fusion has emerged as a pivotal technology in digital image processing by integrating complementary information from multiple imaging modalities to generate a composite image with enhanced ...

The UK's Atomic Energy Authority aims to make nuclear fusion a reality with its latest MAST Upgrade scientific campaign.
