In a new milestone for fusion energy research, physicists in China say they have exceeded the plasma-density limit.
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories Director Dr. Kim Budil speaks during a news conference with fellow administrators and scientists at the Department of Energy headquarters to announce a ...
Researchers working on China's fully superconducting Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) have experimentally ...
An experiment at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory’s (LLNL’s) National Ignition Facility (NIF) appears to have approached fusion ignition as it recreated the extreme temperatures and pressures at ...
China’s latest fusion experiment did more than nudge a world record, it crossed a line many physicists quietly suspected ...
The field of nuclear fusion has seen some exciting advances of late, with scientists demonstrating how fuels can be heated to the temperatures needed for the necessary reactions to take place. All are ...
China's artificial sun breaks density limit that caused fusion experiments to fail, moving closer to clean energy.
Nuclear fusion has been a sort of holy grail for energy researchers for decades. It offers promises and tremendous energy density and efficiency, if ever harnessed. To paraphrase Doc Ock in Spiderman, ...
The colliding planar shock (CPS) platform should deliver precise measurements of the characteristics of warm dense matter (WDM), a state of matter exhibiting properties of both solids and plasmas.
