It’s nearly a century since it was discovered that the sun and other stars are powered by nuclear fusion. It’s when hydrogen atoms merge to form helium, and release huge amounts of energy. Since then, scientists have dreamed of reproducing the process here on Earth, with one Nobe ...  Show more

What do you get if you smash two hydrogen nuclei together? Helium and lots of energy – it's nuclear fusion!Nuclear fusion is the power source of the sun and the stars. Physicists and engineers here on earth are trying to build reactors than can harness fusion power to provide lim ...  Show more

Plusieurs projets de réacteurs nucléaires sont actuellement à l'étude pour reproduire le processus de fusion nucléaire qui se déroule au cœur des étoiles, et donc du Soleil. D'où le nom de "soleils artificiels" donnés à ces réacteurs.
