(Plasma physicsEngineering)(7√field) = high-tech fusion
Marry plasma physics with fusion engineering and the result is technology that advances fusion and other industries, too.
Achieving fusion requires a symphony of complex technologies working in harmony. We need devices that can make plasmas hot enough to fuse, powerful electromagnets to confine the plasma, and methods to convert fusion energy to usable forms, to name just a few. Every system comes with its own engineering challenges that we’re solving or working to improve upon.
Our multidisciplinary melting pot of researchers, engineers, educators, and students make breakthroughs possible in areas like REBCO magnets, liquid immersion blankets, plasma heating, and more.
