In fusion power generation, it is essential that the high-energy particles generated by a fusion reaction in hot plasma heat it to sustain further fusion reactions. The key to this self-heating of the ...

A key component of a system that would deliver fusion energy in the U.S. has arrived at Commonwealth Fusion Systems' (CFS) ...

The sun is frequently ejecting huge masses of plasma, called coronal mass ejections (CMEs), into space. They often occur ...

The exhaust heat generated by a fusing plasma in a commercial-scale reactor may not be as damaging to the vessel's innards as once thought, according to new research about escaping plasma particles.

A young star 111 light-years away is behaving much like our early sun, blasting out eruptions that could have shaped the ...

Plasma ejections from young stars may offer valuable insights into the Sun’s early history. Most of the time, we hardly notice it from Earth, but the Sun is constantly hurling vast clouds of charged ...

Imagine a cloud that shines like a neon sign, but instead of raindrops, it contains countless microscopic dust grains ...

Around the world, research is advancing to efficiently confine fusion plasma and harness its immense energy for power ...

The sun is a dynamic part of our solar system, and it throws plasma and radiation out into space regularly. But not all of ...

The video was recorded by Varda Space Industries ( @VardaSpace ), which is a privately held American space research company.

Space weather isn’t referring to rain clouds that float through the galaxy. Instead, it’s caused by massive explosions of ...

The study of energetic particles and Alfvén eigenmodes is central to understanding plasma behaviour in both laboratory fusion devices and natural astrophysical settings. These high-energy particles, ...
