The way scientists think about fusion changed forever in 2022 ... engineers and materials scientists will need to develop more effective methods to heat and control the plasma and more heat- and ...

Nuclear fusion reactors are nicknamed "artificial suns" because they generate energy in a similar way to the sun — by fusing two light atoms into a single heavy atom via heat and pressure.

For fusion to occur, hydrogen atoms are placed under high heat and pressure until they fuse together. Meanwhile, fission splits a heavy element (with a high atomic mass number) into fragments.

As energy needs expand and the quest for abundant, sustainable energy sources increasingly turns to fusion, the Small Aspect Ratio Tokamak (SMART) represents a significant step forward. The first ...

Besides offering high fusion performance, negative triangularity also features attractive power handling solutions, given that it covers a larger divertor area for distributing the heat exhaust.

For a list of Thursday closings and delays, see this story. Triangle schools will be closed Wednesday due to the threat of snowy weather Several school districts that had planned to have a two ...
