Research published in Physical Review Letters demonstrates that an initial measurement of magnetic island ion temperature has displayed a steep gradient, offering insights into enhancing tokamak ...
New experimental results suggest that sprinkling boron into a tokamak could shield the wall of the fusion vessel and prevent atoms from the wall from getting into the plasma. A new computer modeling ...
Future fusion power plants will require good plasma confinement to sustain reactions and generate energy. One way to contain plasma for fusion reactions is to use a tokamak, a device that applies ...
