A team of fusion researchers at TAE Technologies, Inc., in the U.S., working with colleagues from the University of ...

Scientists use magnetic confinement devices to manipulate plasmas. The most common fusion reactors of that kind are tokamaks and stellarators. Currently, these are the most promising concepts for ...

Nowadays, there are two main approaches for fusion energy research: Magnetic confinement fusion Magnetic confinement fusion is based on the fact that ions and electrons cannot easily travel across a ...

Fusion technologies are rapidly moving up the performance curve as world records tumble. The road to commercialisation is ...

As covered previously, plasma stability is a problem with the popular approach of tokamak-based magnetic confinement fusion (MCF). Although this core problem has now been largely addressed ...

The STEP plant will use magnetic confinement fusion, where two forms of hydrogen ... including the destruction of the cooling towers, are set to finish in early 2028. Councillor Keith Girling ...

An innovative algorithm for detecting collisions of high-speed particles within nuclear fusion reactors has been developed, ...

The articles describe the science behind Type One Energy's fusion power plant design, part of a class of technologies called stellarators, which use powerful magnetic fields to contain plasma ...

About 90 are in operation, most of them tokamaks or stellarators, which use forms of magnetic confinement to heat and compress plasma in an effort to achieve nuclear fusion. In addition to the ...
