JET’s final tritium experiments yield new energy record

The Joint European Torus (JET), one of the world’s largest and most powerful fusion experiment, has demonstrated the ability to reliably generate fusion energy, whilst simultaneously setting a world-record in energy output. The third and final series of deuterium-tritium experiments at the UKAEA’s Joint European Torus successfully achieved high fusion power, consistently produced for 5

New solutions for future fusion power plants tested at the Joint European Torus

The EUROfusion consortium announced the completion of the third deuterium-tritium experimental campaign at the Joint European Torus (JET). The third and final series of deuterium-tritium experiments at the UKAEA’s Joint European Torus successfully achieved its goal! The campaign investigated the processes that will come into play in future fusion power plants, like fuel retention in

The First Tokamak plasma for JT-60SA

The team of engineers and scientists from Europe and Japan have successfully achieved a tokamak plasma for the first time at JT-60SA, the biggest experimental fusion device to date using magnetic confinement. The result will be carefully examined as the teams will continue to perform more tests during the next weeks. The JT-60SA device, otherwise
