By combining REBCO magnets with known fusion principles, the team has designed a research reactor, and potential prototype power plant,

and described it in a paper in the journal Fusion Engineering and Design. It is half the diameter of the ITER fusion reactor to be built in France (designed before the REBCO superconductors),

Liquid rather than solid materials surround the fusion chamber allowing easy circulation and replacement. t an extremely harsh environment for solid materials, said Whyte. evices of a similar complexity

A collaboration between researchers at the University of Gothenburg and the University of Iceland has been to study a new type of nuclear fusion process.

No radiation The new fusion process can take place in relatively small laser-fired fusion reactors fuelled by heavy hydrogen (deuterium.

#Finally, Fusion Takes Small Steps Toward Reality After three decades of expensive government-funded research that has failed to produce tangible breakthroughs,

Commercial power generation from fusion is still a long way off but the outlines of such a reactor can now be perceived.

Traditional fusion research has centered on large, doughnut-shaped machines called tokamaks, which exert powerful magnetic fields to compress high-temperature plasmaoiling balls of charged particles that fuse to form helium, releasing large amounts of energy in the process.

have galvanized the fusion community. Tri Alpha Energy based in Foothill Ranch, California, said in early August that it has succeeded in keeping a high-energy plasma stable for five millisecondsuch less than the blink of an eye,

but alf an eternityon the scale of fusion reactions, according to chief technology officer Michl Binderbauer. Tri Alpha, says Binderbauer,

keeping the plasma stable at a high-enough temperature to achieve energy-positive fusion. The recent experiment indicated that the companyhich has attracted millions of dollars in funding from investors including Goldman sachs and Vulcan Inc,

At MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center, a group headed by Dennis Whyte a professor of nuclear science and engineering and the center director, published a conceptual design in July for a machine called the ARC reactor (ffordable, robust, compact.

Now the advent of advanced superconductor tapes could enable a compact reactor that produces fusion continuously.

Published in Fusion Engineering and Design, the ARC reactor paper stresses that, for the moment, it a conceptual design only.

and Vancouver-based General Fusion, are working on related -but-different designs to bring fusion to the prototype stage (see New Approach to Fusion. e are getting closer to working machines,

says Michel Laberge, the founder and chief scientist at General Fusion. or many years, fusion research was the realm of big government labs that did great work

and established the basis for fusion to work. But there was not a great sense of urgency. ow the urgency has risen,

and these companies are testing new ideas and new approachesnd attracting the investment to do so.

General Fusion recently landed $27 million in new funding from a group of investors led by the sovereign wealth fund of Malaysia. ight now

what happening is a rethinking, says Burton Richter, who won the Nobel prize in Physics in 1976

Companies like Tri Alpha offer a path to fusion paved not with taxpayer dollars but with private-sector moneyhich ultimately is the only way to actually get something built.

With the wariness of a veteran fusion scientist, though, he advises caution: ill you build it, you don know for sure. g

"We have used osseointegration to create a long-term stable fusion between man and machine, where we have integrated them at different levels.

how surface proteins on the virus behave will hopefully tell us what we need to know to prevent fusion with human cells

what the pre-fusion machinery looks like and where these antibodies bind provides an important step forward to understanding HIV's biology,

including molten salt reactors, thorium, fast neutron reactors, pebble bed reactors and fusion. Some of these could be potentially safer and more effective than conventional designs e

and 88 percent white (as Fusion reports) making them less diverse than the much-lambasted tech companies

#Does Lockheed martin Really Have a Breakthrough Fusion Machine? Lockheed martin s announcement last week that it had developed secretly a promising design for a compact nuclear fusion reactor has met with excitement but also skepticism over the basic feasibility of its approach.

In decades of research nobody has produced yet more energy from fusion reaction experiments than was required to conduct the experiments in the first place.

Ian Hutchinson a professor of nuclear science and engineering at MIT and one of the principal investigators at the MIT fusion research reactor says the type of confinement described by Lockheed had long been studied without much success. Hutchinson says he was only

Another startup General Fusion based in Vancouver British columbia tries to control plasma using pistons to compress a swirling mass of molten lead

and lithium that also acts as a coolant absorbing heat from fusion reactions and circulating it through conventional steam generators to spin turbines (see A New Approach to Fusion

The Endoscopic Lumbar Interbody Fusion, or Endolif On-Cage implant, is a titanium alloy implant manufactured with Electron Beam Melt (EBM) technology.

With two large openings, the device can be filled with autogenous bone as a means of promoting the fusion of a straight spinal column.

joimax offers a complete endoscopic-assisted solution for spinal stabilization and fusion. In the future, we will be able to treat patients with even more gentle techniques.

Our next development will be an Endolif Cage on the basis of our ilessys Delta system for posterior lumbar inter-body fusion (PLIF.

One of the most encouraging finding is that PSR-1 plays an early role in the axonal fusion process required for neuroregeneration

Mitochondria constantly undergo fusion and fission to respond to cellular energy demands. By changing their size and connectivity through fusion and fission

mitochondria can travel to regions in cells where they are needed. ur study reveals that disrupting SLC25A46 causes mitochondria to become both more highly interconnected

The resulting gene fusion plays a key role in production of morphine. The researchers hope this will enable the breeding of bespoke poppy varieties

much like changing the settings on itunes or a stereo lets one explore the behavior of music.

This discovery gives fusion researchers a tool to access different intrinsic rotation profiles and learn more about intrinsic rotation itself and its effect on confinement.

A particular protein from within the sperm stays intact at the site of fusion. This protein--discovered by Herr's lab 15 years ago--remains in place

ESP1, is stabilizing the area where the sperm-egg fusion is occurring. That ESP1 is conserved in the region of the sperm head that is thought to initiate fusion with the egg during this transformative time after the acrosome reaction suggests ESP1 is playing a key structural role."

"We suspect ESP1 is one of the key molecules that helps to stabilize the equatorial segment region of the sperm head,

which occurs due to breakage and aberrant fusion of genetic material in the tumour cells, resulting in the formation of a new oncogenic protein encoded by parts of the genes TCF3 and HLF, respectively (TCF3-HLF-positive leukemia cells).
