Scientists have basically completed the development of the High-Resolution Neutron Spectrometer (HRNS), a system that will be used to measure the number and energy of neutrons emitted by the plasma ac...

Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) of the U.S. Department of Energy has been selected to lead three research collaborations with fusion industry partners as part of the 2025 cohort of the Innovation...

Nuclear energy is a primary power option for space exploration, but its success depends on reactors capable of operating autonomously, rather than relying on human operators in space. To achieve this...

Temperatures exceeding 10,000°C and "hailstorms" of charged particles from fusion fuel (plasma) are the extreme conditions that the exhaust walls (divertors) of future fusion power plants must with...

An international research team at the UK's MAST Upgrade facility has successfully tested an innovative exhaust system that reduces the enormous heat load inside a fusion reactor by more than ten time...

On September 1, the Superconductivity Application Research Center at Seoul National University announced the launch of the second phase of joint research with the UK Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA), f...

Recently, the Korea Energy Research Institute (KIER) and Flexell Space announced the signing of a technology transfer agreement involving the process technology and proprietary know-how for ultra-ligh...

A San Diego-based company has successfully completed the Central Solenoid Module, forming part of the largest and most powerful pulsed superconducting magnet ever built. General Atomics announced tha...

U.S.-based flexible thin-film solar photovoltaic (PV) solutions provider Ascent Solar Technologies has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Star Catcher Industries, a space energy company c...

One of the key milestones in the pursuit of fusion energy is achieving a high "triple product," an important metric that measures the temperature, density, and confinement performance of burning pla...

American researchers have announced results showing that tritium can be produced from nuclear waste generated by nuclear power plants. Tritium is extremely rare, with commercial tritium priced at $33 ...

The space solar cells co-developed by the Korea Energy Research Institute (KERI) and Flexel Space are being launched into space aboard the Nuriho satellite. On August 27, the two organizations signed ...
