The pursuit of energy from fusion technology has taken another step forward, with the Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) entering into a cooperative agreement with Type One Energy to jointly develop […] ...

The latest exhibit: Tokamak Energy, a UK-based startup that’s working to refine its squeezed-doughnut approach to fusion power. The company announced Tuesday that it had raised $125 million to ...

Scientists use laser technology and robotics to study fusion fuel retention in the JET reactor to unlock the secrets of ...

When the microwaves interact with the plasma, they transfer energy to the electrons, which heats and drives the plasma. A gyrotron, which uses Electron Cyclotron Resonance Heating (ECRH), solves one ...

In a pioneering approach to achieve fusion energy, the SMART device has successfully generated its first tokamak plasma. This step brings the international fusion community closer to achieving ...

Ian Randall is Newsweek's Deputy Science Editor, based in Royston, U.K. His focus is reporting on science and health. He has covered archeology, geology, and physics extensively. Ian joined ...

China’s Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) has set a new world record maintaining steady-state high-confinement plasma operation for 1,066 ...

It is thought that negative triangularity configurations can better suppress plasma instabilities that expel particles and energy from the plasma, helping to prevent damage to the tokamak wall. Last ...

A gyrotron built by Japan's Kyoto Fusioneering has been delivered to Tokamak Energy in the UK and is due to be installed on the ST40 spherical tokamak this year - it is expected to play a key role in ...

"And they allow us to do it in more compact devices." Greg is a lead scientist at Tokamak Energy, an Oxfordshire-based company that has just been shortlisted by the UK government as part of a ...

First tokamak plasma at the SMall Aspect Ratio Tokamak – SMART – recorded with a fast-framing camera in the visible spectral range. In a pioneering approach to achieve fusion energy, the SMART ...
