A team of nuclear scientist have developed an answer to a 70-year-old issue regarding fusion. The "magnetic bottles" will ...

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 ...

Now scientists think fusion reactors could recreate theoretical dark matter particles, so-called axions, and give researchers ...

For decades, nuclear fusion has held the promise of clean, limitless energy. However, one persistent challenge has slowed progress: the inability to reliably contain the high-energy particles needed ...

The Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) is proposing numerous revisions to its controls on byproduct material produced by ...

Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS), a spinout from Massachusetts Institute of Technology, announced plans on Tuesday to build the world's first grid-scale commercial nuclear fusion power plant in ...

Nuclear fusion conjures images of massive reactors or banks of dozens of large lasers. Avalanche co-founder and CEO Robin Langtry thinks smaller is better. For the last several years, Langtry and his ...

For as long as scientists have been trying to understand the behavior of the electrically charged fourth state of matter ...

Fusion energy promises clean power by mimicking stars. Scientists are focusing on the reactor wall's edge, where plasma meets solid material. Controlling plasma density here is key to stability.
