A critical shortage of fuel for nuclear fusion reactors may have a rather counterintuitive solution. A physicist at the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) says that fusion reactor fuel could be ...

Researchers at the University of British Columbia have shown that a small bench-top reactor can enhance nuclear fusion rates by electrochemically loading a metal with deuterium fuel. Unlike massive ...

Cold fusion, one of the most notorious blunders in science, is making a return – of sorts. Scientists have resurrected an experiment that was once claimed to show room-temperature nuclear fusion, ...

In an audacious stride for the energy sector, a fusion startup has announced the design of what they claim to be the world’s first practical nuclear fusion reactor. We delve into the details of this ...

Nuclear fusion, the process that powers the Sun, has the potential to generate clean and abundant energy. However, it requires two atomic nuclei to collide head-on at high energies, and current fusion ...
