The Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory’s nuclear-fusion reactor points to a possible zero-carbon future. By Matthew Gault Published October 30, 2024 Latest news ...

Scientists at a U.S. government plasma lab have discovered a missing component in nuclear fusion equations that could speed up development of a working reactor. Specifically, the discovery could ...

Back in 2016, the lab had just finished a four-year-upgrade program, but then one of the magnets used to help hold the ultra-hot plasma failed. The device was shut down for months. The lab director at ...

Scientists achieve a breakthrough in nuclear fusion. Here’s what it means. A U.S. lab has successfully sparked a fusion reaction that released more energy than went into it.

New research suggests two methods could work together to better contain nuclear plasma. Nuclear fusion energy is a “holy grail” idea, but we have a long way to go to make it happen.
