Fusion is the process which powers the sun, producing energy by fusing together light atoms such as hydrogen at extremely high pressures and temperatures. Fusion reactors use two forms of hydrogen, deuterium and tritium, as fuel.
Fusion power is a proposed form of power generation that would generate electricity by using heat from nuclear fusion reactions. In a fusion process, two lighter atomic nuclei combine to form a heavier nucleus, while releasing energy. Devices designed to harness this energy are known as fusion reactors.
A crane close to ITER’s heart. F4E and Reel start designing equipment for Remote Handling system. Kickstart your fusion technology transfer project with 50.000€. F4E is responsible for the European contribution to ITER and the development of Fusion energy. Discover the merits and business opportunities of the biggest experiment in fusion ...
Fusion ignition is the point at which a nuclear fusion reaction becomes self-sustaining. This occurs when the energy being given off by the reaction heats the fuel mass more rapidly than it cools. In other words, fusion ignition is the point at which the increasing self-heating of the nuclear fusion removes the need for external heating. [1]
1930s. 1932. Ernest Rutherford 's Cavendish Laboratory at Cambridge University begins nuclear experiments with a particle accelerator built by John Cockcroft and Ernest Walton. [4] In April, Walton produces the first man-made fission by using protons from the accelerator to split lithium into alpha particles.
