A new generation of high-temperature superconductors — known as REBCO — that can be used to achieve very high magnetic field fusion magnets has transformational potential on the size, cost, and deployment times of burning plasma-class magnetic fusion experiments.
Introduces magnetic fusion energy research, with lectures covering the scientific and engineering basis of tokamaks, the state-of-the-art in world fusion experiments, and the MIT vision for a high-magnetic field fusion reactor.
Based on blanket design studies, it became apparent that electrically insulating duct walls would be required to reduce the magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) pressure drop for liquid metal-cooled blankets for high magnetic field fusion devices.
There are two possible approaches to solving this problem: (1) isolate a quasi-stationary plasma using an external magnetic field (fusion reactors with magnetic confinement) and (2) get a dense (n ∼ 1028 m−3) hydrogen fuel capsule compressed from all sides in a pulsed mode (∼10−8 s), then heat the fuel to "fusion" temperatures and burn it (inertial confinement fusion reactors).

Its compact, high-magnetic-field fusion design confined superheated plasma in a small donut-shaped chamber.
The department has played a major role in the design and development of high magnetic-field fusion devices.
This included work at MIT that began in the 1970s, led by professors Bruno Coppi and Ron Parker, who developed the kind of high-magnetic-field fusion experiments that have been operated at MIT ever since, setting numerous fusion records.
The concept, now known as ARC, is in the line of high-field fusion reactor designs the PSFC has long promoted, most recently with the Alcator C-Mod tokamak, which had its record-setting final run in September of this year.
In this case, you can deliver a very specific message (e.g., "ARC: A compact, high-field, fusion nuclear science facility and demonstration power plant with demountable magnets" cite: Sorbom Fusion Engineering and Design 2015 ) and provide detailed evidence (e.g., critical current density, heating power, etc.).
The last day of the conference saw PSFC director Dennis Whyte providing "The Science and Technology Case for High-Field Fusion," examining the two high-field tokamak strategies that emerged in the 1980s, and the new design opportunities provided by compact Rare Earth Barium Copper Oxide superconductors.
Alcator C-Mod is the world's only compact, high-magnetic-field fusion reactor with advanced shaping in a design called a tokamak (a transliteration of a Russian word for "toroidal chamber"), which confines the superheated plasma in a donut-shaped chamber.
