Inspired by Iron Man’s Arc Reactor, we created a real-life ionized plasma generator—and it’s as close to sci-fi as you can get. This isn’t just a glowing prop; it’s a functioning tech ...

The reactor celebrated its first plasma on 14 December. Tokamak fusion reactors feature a divertor structure to remove any unwanted atoms from the plasma chamber, including the helium produced by ...

SMART (Small Aspect Ratio Tokamak), the world's only fusion reactor with 'negative triangularity' constructed at the University of Sevilla in Spain, produced its first plasma.

A world record for nuclear fusion has been smashed after an ‘artificial sun’ reactor was able to maintain a plasma for more than 22 minutes. The WEST reactor, in southern France, is at the ...

They will first receive comprehensive training on reactor assembly and the operation of analytical instruments. They will participate in 3D printing and machining reactor components, assembling these ...

Meet the teenager who built a functional fusion reactor (with plasma) for school project. Record-breaking feat believed to be the first of its kind in a school environment.

Scientists break fusion reactor record with 22-minute plasma reaction Milestone in effort to harness the same power that fuels the Sun and bring limitless, clean energy to the world.
