New magnetic field theory gets us closer to nuclear fusion
Plasma (the phase of matter that powers lightning and neon lights) often contains charged particle which generate magnetic fields, and those fields can break apart dramatically in a process known as magnetic reconnection. That causes solar flares (see the video, below), cosmic ray bursts and the northern lights on Earth. However, conventional theories can't explain why the fields snap and reconnect so quickly, seemingly defying the laws of physics. Magnetic reconnection is particularly irksome inside Tokamak magnetic confinement reactors. When fields created by the plasma shift suddenly, they can break the external fields holding the plasma in place, reducing the forces required to sustain the

Cold Fusion Lives: Experiments Create Energy When None Should Exist
Howard J. Wilk is a long-term unemployed synthetic organic chemist living in Philadelphia. Like many pharmaceutical researchers, he has suffered through the drug industry’s R&D downsizing in recent years and now is underemployed in a nonscience job. With extra time on his hands, Wilk has been tracking the progress of a New Jersey-based company called Brilliant Light Power (BLP). The company is one of several that are developing processes that collectively fall into the category of new energy technologies. This movement is largely a reincarnation of cold fusion, the short-lived, quickly dismissed phenomenon from the late 1980s of achieving nuclear fusion in a simple benchtop electrolysis device.
