Principal Research Scientist Abhay Ram circles back to his graduate school studies for a new initiative combining classical physics and quantum computing.

Scientists are working on ways to make lots of energy by converting matter into energy. The trick is keeping the process under control. One possibility is nuclear fusion – the Sun's power source.

Why do nuclear plants produce radioactive water – and what happens when that water gets into the ocean?

How an MIT engineering course became an incubator for fusion design innovations.

Building a mini star on Earth, and holding it together inside a reactor, is not an easy task.

National Academies study says fusion can help decarbonize US energy, calls for public-private approach to pilot plant operation by 2035-40.

Daniel Korsun’s undergraduate career at MIT prepared him to look more deeply into fusion magnet technology and design.

PhD candidate Lucio Milanese uncovers new fundamental mechanism in turbulence.

MIT Energy Fellow David Fischer irradiates high-temperature superconducting tape to test its resilience and prepare for the first pilot fusion plant.

MIT-Commonwealth Fusion Systems demonstration of new superconducting cable is a key step on the high-field path to compact fusion.
