Fusion differs from fission (the technique currently used in nuclear power plants), because the former fuses two atomic nuclei instead of splitting one (fission). Unlike fission, fusion carries ...

Chinese researchers set a new record by sustaining a nuclear fusion reaction at 100 million degrees Celsius for 1,066 seconds. China invests nearly double the U.S. in fusion research, with Energy ...

Nuclear fusion aims to control inherently unstable plasma, offering a highly efficient energy source with minimal fuel use ...

Scientists in China on a quest to build a nuclear fusion reactor capable of producing unlimited, low-cost energy have achieved a sustained plasma temperature exceeding 100 million degrees Celsius ...

Type One Energy, a nuclear fusion company that moved its headquarters to Knoxville last year with a plan to create 300 jobs and build a prototype at a closed coal plant, signed a cooperative ...

Nuclear fusion offers the tantalizing prospect of abundant, clean energy without the long-lived radioactive waste problem of nuclear fission, the world’s current nuclear energy technology.

In a pioneering approach to achieve fusion energy, the SMART device has successfully generated its first tokamak plasma. This step brings the international fusion community closer to achieving ...

China is believed to be constructing a huge fusion research site in its southwest, which could help it with both nuclear fusion efforts and nuclear weapons design, analysts and researchers have ...
