Hudhayfa Nazoordeen, a math major at the University of Waterloo, built a functioning plasma reactor from scratch—right on campus. In just four weeks, Nazoordeen created a homemade fusor on a ...

The Burning Plasma Experiment Superconducting Tokamak, or BEST, is an intermediary reactor between China’s first-generation reactor and the Chinese Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR)—a ...

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 ...

General Fusion has been working on its unique approach to producing clean energy for two decades, and it's now got something major to show for it. The company has created plasma in its prototype ...

General Fusion announced on Tuesday that it had successfully created plasma, a superheated fourth state of matter required for fusion, inside a prototype reactor. The milestone marks the beginning ...

China 's "artificial sun" reactor has broken its own world record for maintaining super-hot plasma, marking another milestone in the long road towards near-limitless clean energy.

The Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), commonly known as China's "artificial sun," has achieved a remarkable scientific milestone by maintaining steady-state high-confinement ...

Producing enough ammonia to feed the world comes with a large carbon footprint; a process described in a new UB-led study could help change that.

Producing enough ammonia to feed the world comes with a large carbon footprint. A process described in new UB-led study could help fix that.

In a commercial warehouse overlooking the ocean in New Zealand’s capital Wellington, a startup is trying to recreate the power of a star using an unconventional “inside out” reactor with a ...
