Physicists unravel the process of magnetic flux pumping to advance the development of fusion energy

There may be a solution to the occasional sawtooth swings that occasionally disrupt the power output of current thermonuclear fusion reactors. In an article in News Wise, researchers were able to create detailed simulations of magnetic flux pumping, a process that can maintain the stability of plasma despite disruptive external effects. A sawtooth swing is […]

British company successfully tested its prototype nuclear fusion reactor at temperatures hotter than the Sun

Representatives of a British firm claimed that its prototype nuclear fusion reactor has successfully sustained temperatures that exceed the heat generated by the Sun. In an article on SHTF Plan.com, the company claimed that commercial customers could expect practical fusion power by 2030. Tokamak Energy reported that its ST40 fusion reactor has managed to heat […]
