Nuclear fusion comes in all shapes and sizes, and while donut-shaped tokamaks are the most common, many companies and universities are investigating other ways to bring star power in cheaper and more ...

Centrifugal Magnetic Mirrors could enable commercial nuclear fusion reactors on Earth and are also promising for next level propulsion in space. There is funded near term work for both goals. An early ...

New research by Realta Fusion's computational physics team predicts high energy gain and paves the way to solving plasma instabilities long associated with magnetic mirrors MADISON, Wis., Aug. 7, 2025 ...

Fusion is a holy grail for the energy sector, theoretically offering abundant, essentially zero-pollution power in a small physical footprint, without the need to use regional natural resources. There ...

Once upon a time, I worked at a research institute that was, for the most part, devoted to nuclear fusion. Although I was never involved myself, two things impressed me about the research. The first ...

Rob Weiss told an audience at the Atlantic Council that Lockheed is “about four months into a little bit more significant investment” into the technology, which was first revealed around two years ago ...

Funding from new investor Future Ventures and returning investor Khosla Ventures follows the company's record-breaking achievement of the highest magnetic field ever applied in a magnetic confinement ...

Commonwealth Fusion Systems has delivered two high-tech superconducting magnets to a University of Wisconsin experiment on magnetic mirror fusion technology. The magnets are the first products shipped ...
