Google LLC’s DeepMind research unit is partnering with the nuclear fusion startup Commonwealth Fusion Systems LLC to see if it can help it generate almost unlimited amounts of clean energy using its ...
Fusion reactors promise cheap, abundant and relatively clean energy – if we can get them to work. Now, thanks to artificial intelligence firm DeepMind, fusion researchers are one step closer to ...
For the first time, scientists have photographed a rare plasma instability, capturing high-energy electron beams forming into spaghetti-like filaments. This breakthrough, achieved by researchers at ...
Scientists at the Los Alamos National Laboratory in New Mexico are about to start experiments with "plasma guns" in the hope of achieving controlled nuclear fusion—a source of clean and near limitless ...
Physicists in Japan have drawn inspiration from mathematical frameworks in quantum mechanics such as information entropy to develop a groundbreaking method to analyze turbulent states and interactions ...
On Monday, a paper was released that describes some confusing results from the National Ignition Facility, which uses a lot of very energetic lasers focused on a small target to begin a fusion ...
Fusion plasma research centres on realising controlled thermonuclear reactions, with effective diagnostics playing an indispensable role in understanding plasma conditions and fast ion behaviour. Fast ...
