Successfully managing the exhaust is one of the major hurdles in realising fusion energy. The results have been published in ...

Dr. Fernanda Rimini is a key fusion scientist when it comes to the exploitation of the JET, the European Joint Torus. For her amazing pioneering work during JET’s last Deuterium-Tritium Campaign, the ...

The alternative divertor configuration (ADC) programme of EUROfusion has reached a significant milestone, gaining strong visibility through multiple publications in high-impact scientific journals and ...

On June 24, the Slovenian Fusion Association (SFA) celebrated its 20th Anniversary. Since its establishment in 2005, SFA has played a vital role in coordinating fusion research in Slovenia and linking ...

Using the physics picture developed from the ASDEX Upgrade experimental results, the route to the QCE regime in JET reported here is following closely the approach that was successful in ASDEX Upgrade ...

Reaching durations such as these is a crucial milestone for machines like ITER, which will need to maintain fusion plasmas for several minutes. The end goal is to control the plasma, which is ...

Scientists and engineers from eight nations have carried out a project using lasers on the Joint European Torus (JET) to study fusion fuel retention. Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), an ...

At the 49 th General Assembly held in Barcelona, December 2024, Dr. Gianfranco Federici was elected to be the new EUROfusion Programme Manager following a rigorous selection process. Dr. Federici ...

Tokamaks are at the forefront of nuclear fusion research, serving as experimental devices designed to achieve controlled thermonuclear fusion. By confining hot plasma using powerful magnetic fields, ...

The EUROfusion Engineering Grants (EEGs) aim to attract top early-career engineering talents to work on key technological challenges and develop skills that are essential to the European fusion ...

Gyrotrons are fundamental to the operation of fusion energy devices. These high-power microwave systems generate millimetre-wave electromagnetic radiation, which is essential for heating and driving ...

Fusion in space? Lifting a complete power plant the size of ITER into orbit may be out of the realm of possibilities, but fusion still has contributions to make. Scientists from the Spanish EUROfusion ...
