A team from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) said its experimental nuclear reactor, dubbed the ‘artificial Sun’, ...

Researchers using China’s “artificial sun” fusion reactor have broken through a long-standing density barrier in fusion ...

At the heart of nuclear fusion research is the tokamak, a sophisticated device designed to confine hot plasma using magnetic fields. The tokamak's toroidal shape acts as a "magnetic racetrack," ...

(Yicai) Jan. 7 -- Researchers working on the Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak, a nuclear fusion reactor ...

China’s latest fusion experiment did more than nudge a world record, it crossed a line many physicists quietly suspected ...

A tokamak is a toroidal device that employs magnetic confinement to achieve controlled nuclear fusion. It resembles a helical ...

China's Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak has just shattered a longstanding limit in nuclear plasma density.

China's artificial sun breaks density limit that caused fusion experiments to fail, moving closer to clean energy.

An astrophotographer captured a structure that looked like a plasma waterfall on the sun. The structure is believed to be around 60,000-miles-tall. This is the latest in a string of stunning solar ...

A photographer recently snapped an incredibly detailed photo of gigantic, ghostly plasma loops towering above the sun's fiery surface after a powerful solar flare exploded from the sun. When you ...

The Sun’s violent eruptions may have their origins in tangled magnetic fields that act like a loaded spring, twisting plasma and jettisoning it away. Solar physicists, debating the mechanism behind ...
