World’s largest stellarator turns ten: How W7-X cracked code for steady fusion plasma
The Wendelstein 7-X (W7-X) is the largest and most advanced stellarator in the world, and on its tenth birthday, it’s clear the experiment has graduated from a bold engineering prototype to a running ...
Plasma stability is crucial for fusion. If plasma bounces around inside a stellarator, it can escape, cool, and tamp down the fusion reactions, in effect quenching the fusion fire. An earlier version ...
