A persistent asymmetry in fusion exhaust has challenged researchers for years. New simulations show that plasma core rotation, working together with cross-field drifts, determines where particles land ...

China’s Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak has quietly rewritten one of fusion’s hardest rules, using subtle three dimensional tweaks to its magnetic cage to trap plasma at densities long ...

In a landmark achievement for fusion energy, ITER has completed all components for the world's largest, most powerful pulsed superconducting electromagnet system. ITER is an international ...

There are a remarkable number of commercial fusion power startups, considering that it’s a technology that’s built a reputation for being perpetually beyond the horizon. Many of them focus on ...

Experiments at China's Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak have confirmed the existence of "a density-free region" of the tokamak, finding a method to break through the density limit and ...

TYSONS CORNER, VA, Feb. 17, 2017 ” General Atomics is scheduled to conduct a heat treatment process on the Central Solenoid electromagnetic structure’s initial module in March in support of the ...

The sixth module of the Central Solenoid, completed at General Atomics in April 2025. When combined with the five other completed modules, the Central Solenoid will form the center of the ITER tokamak ...
