About 60 years ago, Russian physicist Lev Artsimovich said nuclear fusion “will be ready when society needs it”. The UK has achieved a “major breakthrough for fusion energy research”, the UK Atomic ...

Scientists say the path to commercial fusion power may hinge on better ways to measure the behavior of superheated plasma.

Fusion energy may be one of the most promising clean power sources of the future—but only if scientists can precisely measure the extreme, fast-moving plasmas that make it possible. A new U.S.
