Two Los Alamos Laboratory scientists discovered Arthur Ruhlig’s major contributions to fusion physics, and they did so ...

Traditional hydrogen bombs work through nuclear fusion, a process where atomic nuclei combine under intense pressure to release energy. However, China’s device does not rely on nuclear fusion.

The tech giant is betting that Commonwealth Fusion Systems could start producing fusion power next decade.

Hydrogen atoms are the simplest in nature, which is why they're used for thermonuclear reactions and why the earliest weapons were called "H-Bombs." Using fusion energy is literally harnessing the ...

Hydrogen bombs, considered nuclear weapons, work using a combination of nuclear fission and fusion. Edward Teller led their development in the 1950s.

In 2016, North Korea reportedly carried out its first successful test of a hydrogen bomb, although the fact that the blast appeared to be less powerful than the DPRK’s 2013 detonation of a ...

Atomic bombs rely on fission, or the splitting of the nucleus of an atom, just as nuclear power plants do. The hydrogen bomb uses both fission and fusion — the fusing together of atomic nuclei ...

According to Campain for Nuclear Disarmament (CNDUK), the heart of a nuclear explosion can reach numerous million degrees ...

Nuclear fusion is the merging of two light atomic nuclei into one heavier one. ... When set off in an intentionally uncontrolled chain reaction, nuclear fusion drives the hydrogen bomb.

Hydrogen atoms are the simplest in nature, which is why they're used for thermonuclear reactions and why the earliest weapons were called "H-Bombs." Using fusion energy is literally harnessing the ...
