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

China’s Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST) is a nuclear-fusion research reactor in Hefei. Researchers hope ...

China’s latest experiments with its so‑called “artificial sun” have pushed nuclear fusion into territory many physicists long ...

China’s flagship fusion experiment has pushed plasma density beyond a limit that many physicists treated as a hard ceiling, ...

Researchers have been able to experimentally enter, for the first time, a new nuclear fusion regime, with plasma density ...

Fusion happens when nuclei at the centres of two atoms combine into a single nucleus, forming a heavier element and releasing a huge amount of energy. Combining hydrogen nuclei into helium powers our ...

China’s race to harness fusion energy is no longer confined to a single experimental reactor. Its so‑called “artificial sun” ...

Dubbed 'EAST,' China's 'artificial Sun' mimics the physics of Sun and stars to generate energy from hydrogen electrons.

Engineers in the United Kingdom are racing to build metal shields that can survive conditions similar to the center of the ...
