A slender glass fiber no thicker than a human hair placed across a particle beam could improve accelerator monitoring. A team ...

Next generation of fusion device reaches record plasma pressures in a sheared-flow-stabilized Z pinch EVERETT, Wash., Nov. 18 ...

Basic research may seem far removed from everyday technology, yet it often provides the spark for major industrial shifts.

While H⁺ ions come from both sources, plasma sheet O⁺ ions are exclusively ionospheric, making them key tracers of ionospheric contributions. During geomagnetic storms, massive solar wind energy input ...

Zap Energy’s FuZE-3 device has reached giga-pascal-level plasma pressures thanks to a novel design that independently tunes acceleration and compression. These early results suggest rapid progress ...

US startup Zap Energy has brought fusion energy closer to reality by generating 1.6 GPa plasma pressures inside its FuZE-3 ...

Zap Energy has generated pressure that's 10 times stronger than the bottom of the Mariana Trench, a new milestone in its race ...

Zap Energy's Fuze-3 device has generated record plasma pressures for the startup's unique approach to fusion power.

A stunning new discovery reveals our solar system may be connected to distant stars by a vast interstellar “tunnel” carved by ancient cosmic explosions.
