- The company presented its Texatron(TM) Fusion Engine(TM) development program and related scientific research at the American Physical Society Division of Particles and Fields 2026 Meeting held at Fermilab.
- Chief Technology Officer Dr. John E. Brandenburg outlined the company’s Texatron(TM) development efforts alongside his Gravity-Electromagnetic (“GEM”) Unification Theory.
- The company continues to develop the Texatron(TM) Fusion Engine(TM) through its wholly owned subsidiary, Kepler Fusion Technologies, with a focus on modular fusion energy systems.
- American Fusion(TM) believes the theoretical plasma physics concepts presented may complement the ongoing engineering development of the Texatron(TM) platform, although the GEM theory remains subject to continued scientific evaluation.
American Fusion(TM) (OTC: AMFN), a developer of next-generation fusion energy technologies, has taken another step in advancing the visibility of its fusion energy research, with Chief Technology Officer Dr. John E. Brandenburg presenting the company’s Texatron(TM) Fusion Engine(TM) development program during one of the leading scientific conferences for particle physics.
The presentation took place at the American Physical Society (“APS”) Division of Particles and Fields (“DPF”) 2026 Meeting, hosted at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory (“Fermilab”) in Batavia, Illinois. The biennial conference brings together researchers from national laboratories, universities, and research institutions, to discuss developments in particle physics and related fields (https://ibn.fm/lsPyu).
Alongside an introductory overview of the Texatron(TM) Fusion Engine(TM) program, Dr. Brandenburg presented his Gravity-Electromagnetic (“GEM”) Unification Theory, a theoretical framework that proposes a first-principles mathematical derivation of Newton’s gravitational constant. According to the company, the presentation explored how gravity, electromagnetism, plasma physics, and quantum mechanics, may all be connected within a unified analytical framework.
The GEM theory proposes that Newton’s gravitational constant is not simply an experimentally measured value but emerges from the physical conditions believed to have existed in the early universe. The presentation also discussed the incorporation of quantum mechanics into the model through the fine-structure constant and examined mathematical relationships associated with hydrogen plasma.
While the GEM framework remains a theoretical model requiring continued scientific evaluation, American Fusion(TM) said it believes aspects of the plasma physics discussed could complement future theoretical work supporting the engineering development of the Texatron(TM) Fusion Engine(TM). The company emphasized that its fusion program continues to be driven by experimental validation and ongoing research.
According to the company, the presentation generated substantial audience participation, with attendees posing technical questions regarding the GEM framework and its underlying assumptions. Management characterized the discussion as part of its broader commitment to scientific dialogue and peer engagement as development of the Texatron(TM) platform continues.
“Presenting the Texatron(TM) development program and Dr. Brandenburg’s GEM Unification Theory before one of the world’s premier particle physics communities reflects our commitment to advancing scientific dialogue through rigorous analysis, constructive technical discussion, experimental validation, and peer engagement,” commented Executive Chairman Brent Nelson. “We congratulate Dr. Brandenburg on an outstanding presentation and look forward to continuing our research and development efforts as the Texatron(TM) program advances.”
American Fusion(TM) is developing its fusion technology through its wholly owned subsidiary, Kepler Fusion Technologies. Unlike conventional large-scale fusion concepts requiring centralized facilities, the Texatron(TM) Fusion Engine(TM) is being designed as a modular platform capable of deployment across multiple end markets. Management has previously outlined commercial opportunities that include data centers, industrial facilities, mining operations, defense applications and locations where electric grid capacity is constrained.
The company has also continued expanding its intellectual property portfolio as development progresses. Earlier this year, American Fusion(TM) announced additional U.S. patent filings covering various aspects of the Texatron(TM) platform, reflecting a strategy that combines engineering development with long-term protection of proprietary technologies.
Operationally, the company has continued advancing its testing program during 2026. Previous announcements described regulatory approvals supporting testing activities in Texas and outlined plans to evaluate multiple Texatron(TM) system configurations spanning power outputs from hundreds of kilowatts to multi-megawatt installations. Management has indicated that these efforts are intended to generate engineering data supporting future commercialization.
