Asus has been selling a line of Raspberry Pi-like single-board computers under the Asus Tinker Board brand for years. Aimed at developers and hobbyists, the little computers typically feature ARM-based chips and support for Linux and Android-based software. Earlier this year the company unveiled a 100 x 100mm (3.9″ x 3.9″) model called the Tinker […]

Physicists achieve fusion with net energy gain for second time

Initial data shows an energy output greater than 3.5 megajoules.

US government scientists have achieved net energy gain in a fusion reaction for the second time, a result that is set to fuel optimism that progress is being made toward the dream of limitless, zero-carbon power.

Physicists have since the 1950s sought to harness the fusion reaction that powers the Sun, but until December no group had been able to produce more energy from the reaction than it consumes—a condition also known as ignition.

Researchers at the federal Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in California, who achieved ignition for the first time last year, repeated the breakthrough in an experiment on July 30 that produced a higher energy output than in December, according to three people with knowledge of the preliminary results.
