Researchers in Japan have used computer simulations to model the movement of impurities in tungsten used to line the walls of nuclear fusion reactors. Their findings, published in Nuclear Materials and Energy, bring practical fusion reactors one step closer to reality. Instead of splitting atoms apart like in present day nuclear reactors, nuclear fusion generates energy by fusing atoms together.
