The fusion energy landscape is evolving rapidly. Once confined to experimental research, fusion is now emerging as a strategic national priority for research and development. The IAEA World Fusion ...

Abstract: Feature extraction is a critical issue in many machine learning systems. A number of basic fusion operators have been proposed and studied. This article proposes an evolutionary algorithm, ...

The US Department of Energy has initiated four new collaborations to address key challenges in developing fusion energy. The projects, named SWIFT-PFCs, BCTF, FILMS, and MiRACL, are part of the Fusion ...

A digital representation of the surface of a plasma-facing divertor component and the underlying helium cooling system in a tokamak fusion device. The SWIFT-PFCs FIRE collaborative will model virtual ...

Nuclear fusion promises a green and infinitely renewable supply of energy—if we can harness it. Fusion happens all the time inside the sun. But to recreate the process on Earth, we must control ...

This parts library features every VRC legal part currently available, and will continue to be updated as new parts get released. This library is the second iteration of the original Fusion 360 Library ...

Cold fusion, one of the most notorious blunders in science, is making a return – of sorts. Scientists have resurrected an experiment that was once claimed to show room-temperature nuclear fusion, ...

A startup energy company, called Marathon Fusion, may soon be living out the dream of alchemists from the Middle Ages. In a recently released paper posted to the arXiv preprint server, the company ...

Germany's Wendelstein 7-X stellarator has set a new benchmark for fusion reactors, bringing commercial, near-limitless clean energy one step closer to reality. When you purchase through links on our ...

General Fusion announced on Tuesday that it had successfully created plasma, a superheated fourth state of matter required for fusion, inside a prototype reactor. The milestone marks the beginning of ...
