Fusion Sparks an Energy Revolution

Wired  

In 2024, fusion technology will finally make the transition from basic research to commercial application. In 2022, researchers at the National Ignition Facility in California became the first to demonstrate experimentally that a fusion process could indeed produce a net energy gain. This experiment used high-power lasers to deposit energy in a small fuel target—a millimeter-sized capsule containing frozen deuterium …

Editor’s Note: Don Lincoln is a senior scientist at the Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory. At the Culham Centre for Fusion Energy, located just south of Oxford, scientists used a device called the Joint European Torus to create a controlled nuclear fusion reaction for about five seconds, generating 59 million joules of energy, or nearly 12 megawatts of power. When nuclear …

India’s contribution towards Nuclear Fusion project needs to be more

Op India  

India is on its path to become a five trillion-dollar economy. The ITER project International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor or ITER is an ambitious project to develop sustainable and affordable fusion technology to produce clean energy. As India’s contribution stands at 9.1 percent, there can be as many as 95 Indian nuclear scientists gaining knowledge at the ITER. With ample contributions …
