Researchers from the Livermore National Laboratory in the United States for the first time were able to obtain 8.6 megajoules ...

Lawrence Livermore proved over 4X power gain from laser fusion in April 2025.

End of 2022, researchers at the NIF succeeded in generating more energy with a fusion reaction than they put into it. Now there are new records.

The Burning Plasma Experimental Superconducting Tokamak (BEST) nuclear fusion reactor being built in Heifei, China, is in the final phase of its assembly and on track for completion by 2027. When ...

Realta Fusion, a spin-off from the University of Wisconsin, is hopeful that it will crack the fusion energy puzzle with its ...

Canned fusion, if it works, would need less power than NIF and shorter plasma-confinement times than ITER; as a result, a working reactor based on its principles might cost tens of millions of dollars ...

"For that reason, skeptics dismiss NIF as a colossal delusion that is squandering precious resources at a time of economic hardship." A similar project in France, known as the International ...
