ITER If you haven’t heard about ITER, chances are you will soon. The scale and scope of the ITER Project rank it among the most ambitious science endeavors of our time. Building began in 2010 on the ITER platform in Cadarache, France where 35 nations are collaborating to realize the world’s largest tokamak fusion device. … Read moreITER the way to new energy
Jülich Bringing the Solar Fire to Earth: Fusion Research On the way towards an international fusion reactor In the south of France, the international fusion reactor known as ITER is currently being constructed. For fusion researchers worldwide, this is the most important large-scale experiment, as ITER will be the first reactor to generate 500 million … Read moreJülich Forschungszentrum
German Federal Ministry of Education & Research Fusion Research – how the sun and stars produce energy Fusion, that is, the merging of atomic cores, is the process by which the sun and the stars produce their energy. It is an ancient dream of mankind to “bring the sun down on earth” and to make … Read moreGerman Federal Ministry of Education & Research
University of Sydney Fusion energy research in the School of Physics focuses on Inertial Electrostatic Confinement (IEC). This approach enables fusion to be carried out on a bench top while still enabling the physics of larger fusion devices to be studied. The approaches used to study the physics of IEC use optical diagnostics such as … Read moreUniversity of Sydney Fusion Plasmas
