A team of Chinese researchers has reported reaching a temperature of 100 million degrees Celsius—six times hotter than the ...

China's EAST reactor achieved plasma densities 1.65x beyond theoretical limits, solving fusion's 70-year puzzle and bringing ...

The Chinese achievement underscores the growing prominence of China in fusion research and provides a concrete blueprint for ...

Experiments show fusion plasma can stay stable at higher densities by controlling reactor walls, challenging long-standing limits.

Here’s what you’ll learn when you read this story: The plasma density barrier is a mathematical limit to the density of plasma that can exist in a tokamak before destabilizing. A new study led by a ...

The race to recreate the sun’s power on Earth just hit a major milestone. Scientists operating a powerful fusion reactor, often nicknamed China’s “artificial sun,” set a world record that’s turning ...

China’s third-generation nuclear reactor, Hualong One, is entering a new phase of faster, batch-scale ...

Researchers working on China’s Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) say they have managed to operate the reactor beyond a plasma density limit that has constrained fusion experiments ...
