Inside these walls, scientists have been trying for decades to create an unlimited source of energy, nuclear fusion. Welcome to JET, the world's biggest nuclear fusion experiment. Scientists argue ...

An experimental nuclear fusion project has set a world record in generating energy on Earth using the same kind of reactions that power the sun. In the new experiments, the Joint European Torus (JET) ...

JET Fusion Energy Experiment Bows Out By Breaking World Record. The Joint European Torus (JET), one of the world's largest fusion machines, bowed out by setting a world record for energy output.

Hot topic: For over the past decade, JET has been carrying out “ITER relevant” experiments, in anticipation of the opening of the ITER fusion reactor in Cadarache, France. (Courtesy: EUROfusion) JET ...

The promise of a human-made, sustained, controlled nuclear fusion reaction has always seemed to be “just a few decades away.” But now recent results from JET, the Joint European Torus experiment, have ...

Following the example of the sun, fusion power plants aim to fuse the hydrogen isotopes deuterium and tritium and release large amounts of energy in the process. The only plant in the world currently ...

The Joint European Torus produced the largest amount of energy achieved in a fusion experiment during its final round of deuterium-tritium experiments, breaking its own record set in 2021. The ...

On September 8, 1961, engineers gathered at Dunsfold airfield to witness a test that could upend aviation forever. The Hawker Siddeley P.1127 was about to attempt something no jet had ever done. Lift ...
