The “artificial sun” reactor ... with how today’s tokamaks build their magnetic fields. The extremely huge electromagnets used in these machines are key to tokamaks’ designs (ITER received ...

“When the magnetic energy content of the sun is a lot larger ... “You’re basically getting a glimpse at the machine,” he says. “And so you have to draw inference from the storms to ...

the same phenomenon that powers the sun, than it takes to achieve and sustain those reactions. By some point in 2025, the scientists at Commonwealth Fusion Systems expect, their machine will blow ...

There are balls of dead matter no bigger than a city yet shining a hundred times brighter than the Sun that send out flares ... They have the strongest magnetic fields ever observed, so strong ...

This week, a dramatic event occurred on the Sun when a massive solar filament erupted, releasing a surge of material across ...

the energetic reaction that powers stars like our Sun. Tokamaks constrain the plasma by generating very strong magnetic fields, hence the importance of ITER’s Central Solenoid. ITER is dedicated ...

Space scientists have not been able to exactly determine where the Sun's magnetic field originates. Most recently, researchers found these rotations could be much closer to the surface than previous ...
