UK fusion pioneer Tokamak Energy has launched TE Magnetics, a new business division focussed on the industrial deployment of high temperature superconducting (HTS) magnet technology. Designed to ...

Recent computer simulations suggest the optimal placement of lithium vapor to protect the tokamak’s interior from intense plasma heat. Innovative configurations, such as the lithium “cave” and porous ...

They have introduced the idea of a lithium vapor “cave” and a porous plasma-facing wall, both designed to protect the tokamak, a doughnut-shaped fusion vessel, from the extreme temperatures ...

New fusion simulations of the inside of a tokamak reveal the ideal spot for a 'cave' with flowing liquid lithium is near the bottom by the center stack, as the evaporating metal particles should ...

This photo, taken by PPPL Associate Research Physicist Eric Emdee, is figuratively reminiscent of the lithium vapor cave proposed to protect the interior parts of a tokamak from excess heat coming off ...
