China's new-generation "artificial sun" HL-3.
CNNC
Chinese scientists have made a groundbreaking milestone in nuclear fusion. They have announced a major achievement in discovering an advanced magnetic field structure “for the first time in the world” using the Huanliu-3 (HL-3) tokamak, also known as China’s “artificial sun.”
The discovery is the result of the first round of international joint experiments conducted on the HL-3 tokamak, a project that opened to global collaboration at the end of 2023.

In a first, China’s ‘artificial sun’ achieves magnetic field in nuclear fusion
This latest development is a major step toward controlled nuclear fusion, a process that involves combining atomic nuclei to release vast amounts of energy.
