The model heats plasma before raising its density, but no current experiment reaches the temperatures associated with the modeled Cordey pass. Scientists at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) modeled a route to fusion ignition that heats…
The pursuit of virtually inexhaustible, low-carbon baseload electricity rests heavily on mastering these contrasting physical reactions. To appreciate why global regulators and private laboratories are pouring billions into next-generation systems, one must look closely at how each process generates heat,…
The rotor is scheduled to travel through Santa Fe from Old Las Vegas Highway Saturday Oct. 17. From there the equipment will travel to White Rock, heading north on U.S. 285 and west on N.M. 502. On Sunday, Oct. 18, the equipment is scheduled to travel…
In the middle of the Cold War, the film company found a surprising way to harness weapons-grade uranium. But the truth about the reactor was stranger, and tamer, than the headlines suggested. In 1975, Kodak powered up the country’s first californium…
Scientists may have found a surprising shortcut to nuclear fusion that could dramatically cut the energy needed to ignite the power of the Sun. For more than seven decades, scientists have relied on an equation called the Lawson criterion to…
The National Science Foundation’s (NSF) Innovation Corps, or I-Corps, is a program that prepares scientists and engineers to extend their focus beyond the laboratory to accelerate the transfer of cutting-edge, deep tech research into commercial success. Brown University is proud…
Researchers have built a vacuum-compatible system that uses direct electric heating to measure the spectral emissivity of refractory metals from 500 to over 3,000 degrees Celsius with uncertainty below 2 percent. News Source: Denise Maddox. (October 16, 2026). New Vacuum Furnace Turns Metal Samples Into…
A three-year project led by Joshua Burby will build neural network models to explore new stellarator designs and lower the cost of future fusion power plants. Leaders of the project are (from left to right) Tan Bui-Thanh, Joshua Burby and…
