The fusion created by magnetically confined plasma is a promising clean and essentially unlimited future energy source. However, there are important problems hindering controlled fusion like the ...
ReBCO cables are an enabling technology for compact fusion reactors 1,2,3, due to the high critical temperature, high critical field and potential to form demountable magnets 4. Commonwealth Fusion ...
New research published in Physical Review Letters suggests that superconducting magnets used in dark matter detection experiments could function as highly precise gravitational wave detectors, thereby ...
Designing predictable nuclear fusion reactors requires highly accurate computer models, yet existing simulations often ...
A massive magnet that crossed the Atlantic Ocean has brought one of America’s most ...
MIT physicists have demonstrated a new form of magnetism that could one day be harnessed to build faster, denser, and less power-hungry "spintronic" memory chips. The new magnetic state is a mash-up ...
A nuclear fusion experiment at the University of Wisconsin-Madison has set a record for the strongest steady magnetic field confining a plasma, ushering in new hope that forthcoming demonstration ...
If you've ever watched a flock of birds move in perfect unison or seen ripples travel across a pond, you've witnessed nature's remarkable ability to coordinate motion. Recently, a team of scientists ...
