The largest stellarator in the world has come to life! We witnessed the historic moment of the first plasma shot of Wendelstein 7-X in Greifwald on Dec. 10.
Despite a rainy start, Maria Suchonova is looking forward to the FuseNet PhD Event. Read about her experiences during the first evening of the PhD Event here.
The first two PhD students graduated recently from the FUSION-DC Joint Doctorate programme. Luxherta Buzi and Hugo Arnichand successfully defended their doctoral thesis.
For the third year in a row, the European Commission launched the SOFT innovation prize to showcase and reward excellence in fusion research innovation.
During initial testing of the Wendelstein 7-X magnetic field it has been proven to be spot on! Read this article for more information about this essential milestone in the operation preparations of the biggest stellarator in the world.
This time-lapse video shows the recent rapid progress of the work at the ITER site, now for the first time shown by unique images shot from a Drone helicopter.
You can now study the basics of plasma physics and fusion energy comfortably from your home, with the new online course that EPFL launches next month on EdX.
On February 3, 2015, thirteen students proudly received their European Fusion Master’s and Doctorate certificates from FuseNet in a festive ceremony at CCFE, in the UK.
On February 3, 2015, FuseNet and ENEN have signed a Memorandum of Understanding and initiated cooperation between the European fusion and fission education networks.
In collaboration with the FuseNet, ITER has placed cameras around the construction site. Check out the building progress in this first time-lapse compilation!
More than 120 PhD students gathered last week in Portugal to exchange experiences and present their research in the 4th edition of the FuseNet sponsored PhD event.
Grant Agreement 633053 was signed today in Brussels between the European Commission and EUROfusion. Its goal: realising fusion electricity to the grid by 2050!
Experiments at Princeton University have shown that magnetic reconnection converts about 50% of the magnetic energy into the plasma. The experiment also suggests the process by which the energy conversion occurs, a step that can help tokamak physicists.
All PhD students in fusion related topics are invited to the 2014 edition of the FuseNet PhD event. The 4th edition will be held from 18-20 November, 2014 in Lisbon, Portugal!
