China is set to build the world’s first fusion-fission hybrid power plant, a revolutionary step in nuclear energy. The ...

A multibillion-dollar project is set to be constructed in China, the country's latest move in a push for nuclear energy.

If 100 megawatt hybrid plant is on schedule, it could put China decades ahead of comparable efforts in the rest of the world.

Fusion has long been the propulsion end-goal for interplanetary travel, and a U.K.-based company thinks on its way to ...

For decades, the U.S. has led the race to clean, limitless nuclear fusion energy. Now China is catching up, spending twice as ...

Researchers have found an environmentally safer way to extract the lithium 6 needed to create fuel for nuclear fusion ...

Students explore nuclear facilities in virtual reality and learn about the ethical dimensions of nuclear technology in a ...

But the consequences could be huge. Fusion is a process that merges atoms together, and releases more energy than fission (which splits atoms apart). Fission is used by today's nuclear power ...

The amount of energy produced from fusion is very large — four times as much as nuclear fission reactions — and fusion reactions can be the basis of future fusion power reactors. Plans call for ...

A cutting-edge project to test “fusion blanket” technologies is taking shape, with the Idaho National Laboratory (INL) ...

Plasma turbulence is the main driver to deteriorate the performance of fusion power plants. This work presents an unprecedented comparison of plasma turbulence between experiment and simulation ...
