The physical concept of the density-free regime has been verified for the first time on EAST in this work. The EAST experiments combine control of the initial fuel gas pressure with electron cyclotron ...

It turns out that containing the same process that powers the sun can be turbulent work. Even microscale eddies in fusion plasma experiments can cause performance degradation, according to a release ...

The Korea Institute of Fusion Energy (KFE) has begun its 2024 plasma experiments, aiming to secure advanced plasma operation technologies. This year’s experiments will focus on developing ...

A team of U.S. scientists has made a surprising discovery that could help bring fusion energy, a long-hoped-for clean energy source, closer to reality. In a recent experiment at the University of ...

Plasma, the electrically charged state of matter that lights up stars and neon signs, has just revealed a subtle effect that had never been directly seen before, yet appears to be woven through much ...
