Zap Energy, the Seattle-area startup that has spent nearly a decade chasing fusion power through an unconventional plasma ...

A nuclear engineer breaks down how laser-based fusion works, what megaprojects are trying to achieve, and what’s realistic vs ...

When it comes to alternative power sources, nuclear fusion is still a dream scenario. While using nuclear fusion to create commercial-scale energy has yet to be achieved, scientists say it could ...

While nuclear power plants have become ubiquitous, they all operate using nuclear fission — but one energy startup has plans to change this. Commonwealth Fusion Systems (CFS), a spinoff branch of the ...

India’s Ambassador to the US, Vinay Mohan Kwatra, has said quantum technologies, artificial intelligence and nuclear science ...

The science news ecosystem repeats unfounded claims about nuclear fusion. OpenStar’s reactor has an unusual design, but it’s just as unproven as all the others. Their reactor has a central magnet ...

Four years into Russia’s war with Ukraine, nearly all ties between Russian and European science have been severed. Russian scientists were expelled from CERN, a particle-physics lab in Geneva. A joint ...

Kwatra flagged nuclear fusion as an area of cooperation between the two countries, in addition to the conventional fission ...

A decades-old scientific controversy and a small bench-top apparatus at the University of British Columbia (UBC) could be the key to more efficient fusion reactors by increasing the chances of a ...

The world is using more and more power — the demand for electricity is increasing at about twice the rate of overall energy use. And it’s only going to grow as the global population is expected to ...

Fusion energy has the potential to be an effective clean energy source, as its reactions generate incredibly large amounts of energy. Fusion reactors aim to reproduce on Earth what happens in the core ...
