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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

RocketStar, a US based startup, has successfully demonstrated an electric propulsion unit for spacecraft that uses nuclear fusion-enhanced pulsed plasma. During ground tests the process did create ...

Using nuclear fusion, the process that powers the stars, to produce electricity on Earth has famously been 30 years away for more than 70 years. But now, a breakthrough experiment done at the DIII-D ...

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 ...

Commonwealth Fusion Systems’ planned $2.5 billion-plus Chesterfield County facility, which could be the world’s first grid-scale commercial nuclear fusion energy plant, is advancing through the county ...

There are at least two key resources vital for human existence and progress: Water and power. Israel has partly solved the water problem, with state-of-the-art desalination technology. Engineers ...
