Nuclear fusion holds the potential for clean, greenhouse gas-free baseload power, but challenges in controlling plasma have hindered its commercial viability. Recent breakthroughs, particularly with ...

The alchemist's dream is to make gold from common metals, but can this be done? The physics needed to explain how to change one element into another is well understood and has been used for decades in ...

The Healey administration last week launched a four-month effort to chart a course for further exploration of advanced nuclear and fusion energy technologies for both power generation and other ...

The race to bring a $1 billion nuclear fusion plant to their city has officials in Livermore eager to make a deal. Despite no firm commitment from the startup behind the project, Pacific Fusion, the ...
