Researchers have experimentally demonstrated dynamic shell formation for the first time. It may help achieve the goal of a fusion power plant.

A US national lab has proved we can the fusion process can be used to produce energy, but it’s just the first step in a very long process.

Huge challenges remain before working fusion reactors are possible.

The promise of abundant, clean energy powered by nuclear fusion is one big step closer thanks to a new experiment. The results are a historic scientific milestone, but energy production remains a ways off.

Harvard scientist Adam Cohen breaks down breakthrough that might prove major turning point in clean energy efforts — but not any time soon.

In January 2022, the JET fusion experiment produced more power over a longer period of time than any past attempt. Two physicists explain the engineering advancements that made the result possible.

Fusion produces more energy per gram of fuel than any other process that could be achieved on Earth.

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.

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