A team led by Prof. Lyu Bo and Dr. Bae Cheonho from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a new code to analyze the multi-fluid plasma rotation and ...

You can now see how nuclear fusion takes place in a doughnut-shaped receptacle called a tokamak, thanks to a new 3D visualization by the École Spéciale de Lausanne. Nuclear fusion is the reaction that ...

Scientists from the U.S. and Spain are uniting to create SMART, a compact spherical tokamak testing a novel plasma shape that could transform fusion energy. Their collaboration blends advanced ...

The simulations accurately predict the heat losses measured in experiments in the DIII-D tokamak. The findings reveal that turbulence at small electron scales can become the dominant driver of heat ...

Creating efficient, self-sustaining fusion power requires good confinement of the heat in the plasma. Plasma confinement is limited by particle and energy losses due to turbulence. A new analysis used ...
