Fusion Stellarator Device Efficiency Improvement Confirmed

August 19, 2021 | Leave a Comment

Max-Planck-Institut für Plasmaphysik (IPP) has now confirmed one of the most important optimization goals underlying the Wendelstein 7-X fusion device. The analysis shows that in the optimized magnetic field cage, the energy losses of the plasma are reduced in the desired way. Wendelstein 7-X is intended to prove that the disadvantages of earlier stellarators can […]

Making Ammonia Without Using Natural Gas

January 29, 2019 | Leave a Comment

Case Western Reserve University researchers have come up with a new way to create ammonia from nitrogen and water at low temperature and low pressure. They’ve done it successfully so far in a laboratory without using hydrogen or the solid metal catalyst necessary in traditional processes. Ammonia, a compound first synthesized about a century ago, […]

Wendelstein 7-X Stellarator Gets Good Startup Results

November 8, 2018 | Leave a Comment

Imagine building a machine so advanced and precise you need a supercomputer to help design it. That’s exactly what scientists and engineers in Germany did when building the Wendelstein 7-X experiment. The device, funded by the German federal and state governments and the European Union, is a type of fusion device called a stellarator. The […]

Blacklight Power Gets 2 More Validations – More Information

August 5, 2014 | 15 Comments

Blacklight Power has posted two more university validations to support its assertions that the firm is making hydrinos and the hydrinos make up a part of its new solid fuel. The first work comes from Auburn University’s professor Dr. Gilbert L. Crouse, Jr. who has prepared a paper describing the replication of Dr. Mill’s work […]
