In this week’s edition of The Prototype, we look at new advances in fusion power, how the new budget bill undermines clean ...

Right now, everyone is drooling over AI – and rightfully so. Artificial intelligence is already rewriting the rules of work, ...

Breakthroughs from two rival experiments, Germany’s Wendelstein 7-X and the Joint European Torus, suggest the elusive dream ...

The LEAP 600C is engineered to address the accelerating demand for high-temperature superconducting (HTS) tapes used in magnetic confinement fusion, medical imaging, and next-generation power grids.

The existence of a theoretically predicted critical magnetic field strength for efficient plasma confinement in helicon plasma thrusters is verified experimentally in the source of a magnetic nozzle ...

A paper on fusion neutron sources by a team from the United States of America’s Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and the University of Rochester has won the IAEA’s annual Nuclear Fusion prize.

Nearly all funding of so-called magnetic confinement fusion has until recently been channelled into traditional tokamaks, and companies in the US have raised much larger sums than Proxima.

Concept and design of a magnetic linear accelerator to accelerate a 0.1-1.0 gm superconducting solenoid projectile to a velocity exceeding 105 m/s are presented. Such a device could serve as ignitor ...
