Applications are open for the 2026 Engineering Grants funding individual post-master engineering projects for 2-years ...

While the central requirements for DEMO lie in its capability to generate between 300 Megawatt to 500 Megawatt net electricity to the grid and to operate with a closed fuel-cycle, meaning spent ...

Fusion is the most dominant reaction in our observable universe and it is the reaction that powers our Sun and the stars. However, the science and physics of nuclear fusion started becoming clear only ...

Plasma physicists combine three parameters – temperature, density and time – by multiplying them together to form what is known as the fusion product or triple product.At a certain value of the fusion ...

The EUROfusion programme is based on the Roadmap to the Realisation of Fusion Energy. The programme has two main pillars: Preparing for ITER experiments; Developing a concept for the future ...

To realise fusion, the EUROfusion consortium brings together 4800 researchers, staff and students from its 28 member institutes, 3 associated partners, and 162 affiliated entities from across Europe.

At temperatures of 15 million degrees Celcius in the Sun’s core, hydrogen gas becomes plasma, the fourth state of matter. In a plasma, the negatively charged electrons in atoms are completely ...

In fission, energy is gained by splitting heavy atoms, for example uranium, into smaller atoms such as iodine, caesium, strontium, xenon and barium, to name just a few. However, fusion is combining ...

The result came as part of an experimental campaign to verify operating scenarios for future fusion machines, under conditions as close as possible to those in ITER and future fusion power plants. The ...

EUROfusion’s Fusion Science programme is designed to coordinate the pan-European scientific research and experiments following the EUROfusion Roadmap to gather as much knowledge as possible to ensure ...

The EUROfusion roadmap forms the basis for the programme of EUROfusion and provides a clear and structured way forward to commercial energy from fusion. In the course of the roadmap implementation, ...

If fusion is going to power the future, it needs a generation of well-trained fusion researchers and engineers. Here we provide resources that educators, especially those from the STEM fields, can use ...
