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 ...
Applications are open for the 2026 EUROfusion Engineering Grants funding individual post-master engineering projects for 2-years starting in 2026.
The Quasi-Continuous Exhaust (QCE) is a regime that is naturally free of type-I Edge Localised Modes (ELM). It combines the high density at the plasma edge needed for power exhaust with the high ...
In a virtually unprecedented alignment of efforts, Europe’s major fusion research experiments have simultaneously entered a high-intensity experiment phase, showcasing Europe's strong collaboration ...
1,337 seconds or more than 22 minutes: that was how long WEST, a tokamak run from the CEA Cadarache site in southern France and one of the EUROfusion consortium medium size Tokamak facilities, was ...
One of the key factors in the fusion reaction is temperature. Devices like ITER will need to heat the plasma up to 150 million °C –ten times hotter than the core of the Sun – and keep it burning.
Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS), an analytical technique that uses a high-powered laser to measure the composition of a material, was deployed using a remotely operated robotics system on ...
At the 49th General Assembly held in Barcelona, December 2024, Dr. Gianfranco Federici was elected to be the new EUROfusion Programme Manager following a rigorous selection process.
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 ...
The IAEA and Italy co-hosted a landmark ministerial meeting in Rome for the World Fusion Energy Group (WFEG), emphasizing fusion energy’s momentum.
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 ...
