Chinese researchers report experimentally overcoming the Greenwald density limit in tokamak fusion reactors. The advance removes a major physics barrier toward sustained fusion and energy breakeven.

Researchers working on China’s ‘artificial sun’ have reported breaking a long-accepted threshold that has limited the operation of nuclear fusion reactors for decades. China’s Experimental Advanced ...

Scientists at China’s Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) program rang in the new year with a stunning accomplishment: empirical evidence that they used the device to achieve nuclear ...

At 4 a.m., while most of New Jersey slept, a Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) physicist sat at his computer connected to a control room 3,500 miles away in Oxford, England. Years of ...

China's EAST nuclear fusion reactor has successfully kept plasma stable at extreme densities, passing a major fusion milestone and potentially bringing humanity closer to wielding near-limitless clean ...

Getting a significant energy return from tokamak-based nuclear fusion reactors depends for a large part on plasma density, but increasing said density is tricky, as beyond a certain point the plasma ...

There has been an interest in the fourth state of matter, and the U.S. Japan and Europe have joined hands to work towards the stage of abundant power. Thanks to the partnership forged by Princeton ...

The sun-mimicking technology known as nuclear fusion hopes to create “limitless” energy by smashing light nuclei together using immense heat, but containing such hot plasma is proving tricky. A ...

Disney's Imagineers checked out "thousands of AI companies" before backing one that keeps animators in the driver's seat. Corinne Reichert (she/her) grew up in Sydney, Australia and moved to ...
