This chapter focuses on the process of fusion. When two light nuclear particles combine or "fuse" together, energy is released because the product nuclei has less mass than the original particles. Such fusion r
This Collection welcomes original research articles on nuclear fusion, in particular looking at new materials and design technologies to achieve controlled nuclear energies.
The article reports on the harnessing of nuclear fusion in the generation of energy. At first it seemed apparent that the technology of controlled fusion would arise naturally and develop from very simple and transparent ideas of physics. Atomic energy has the greatest practical importance among ...

I Scientific and Technical Foundation of Fusion Power I.A Introduction The importance of secure and abundant energy sources has been underscored by a variety of political and economic events. Faced with diminishing supplies of fossil fuels and recognizing the environmental consequences of their use, th...
in October, bringing the total to four successful runs out of the last six shots. They are gearing up for even higher yields next year. In doing so, scientists at the facility have unlocked research opportunities and helped to fuel a wave of optimism about the future of fusion energy. ...
though, it set a pattern for the long quest to harness star power for virtually limitless clean energy here on Earth: audacious claims followed by disappointment, rinse and repeat. It explains the tiresome persistence of the old joke that fusion has always been 30 years away, a...
