First Light Fusion presents first reactor-compatible path to "high gain" fusion, which would drastically reduce the cost of this limitless clean energy source. Gain (energy out divided by energy in – ...

British inertial fusion energy developer First Light Fusion has presented the first commercially viable, reactor-compatible path to 'high gain' fusion, which it says would drastically reduce the cost ...

Engineers in the United Kingdom are racing to build metal shields that can survive conditions similar to the center of the ...

There’s only one fusion device on earth that has been able to meet a key scientific threshold, but Maritime Fusion CEO Justin Cohen is already preparing to put a fusion reactor on a boat. Stay with me ...

Nuclear fusion promises a green and infinitely renewable supply of energy—if we can harness it. Fusion happens all the time inside the sun. But to recreate the process on Earth, we must control ...

Over the last several years, fusion power has gone from the butt of jokes — always a decade away! — to an increasingly tangible and tantalizing technology that has drawn investors off the sidelines.

Reactors designed to produce energy from the fusion of atoms could have an unexpected scientific side benefit. An international team of researchers has shown that low-mass dark-sector particles, such ...

Dark matter seems invisible, but it makes up most matter, and we have evidence that it gives the cosmos its shape. Now ...

The promise of nuclear fusion feels simple. Just as stars fuse hydrogen into heavier elements to produce energy, a fusion reactor generates massive amounts of energy by combining lightweight particles ...
