Researchers Use Mayonnaise to Advance Nuclear Fusion Experiments, Potentially Benefiting Cancer Treatment and Batteries, 30 Years Away

Aug 11, 2024, 05:16 AM

Researchers are exploring the use of mayonnaise to enhance nuclear fusion experiments, a development that could lead to significant advancements in fusion energy yields. The exploration of this unconventional approach is part of a broader initiative to improve fusion technology, which is projected to be 30 years away from practical application. Experts emphasize that while full-scale fusion power plants may still be decades off, the technologies being developed in this field could yield benefits much sooner. Innovations arising from fusion research may have wide-ranging applications, including potential breakthroughs in cancer treatment and the development of superior batteries for electric vehicles. The Fusion Cluster is actively communicating the value of these emerging technologies to the public, highlighting their importance even before the establishment of operational fusion power plants.
