Summary |
The past two years have seen several notable advances in fusion research, including: The achievement of plasma temperatures above 100 million degrees Celsius by private companies, a crucial milestone on the path toward commercial fusion. The creation of the strongest ever superconducting magnet of its type, a major step in overcoming "the greatest technological hurdle" in the advance towards net-positive magnetic confinement power. The first instance of "burning plasma," a requirement for a self-sustaining fusion reaction. Generation of the highest sustained energy pulse ever created by fusing atoms, doubling the previous record and providing key information on how future experiments will work |
