Marchant rose to prominence by winning the 500 metres (m) time trial at the 1955 Victorian Championships for juniors in only his second year of competition.
At a temperature equivalent to 10,000 eV, the nτ product must be about 3 × 1020 particles per cubic metre times seconds.
At a temperature equivalent to 10,000 eV, the nτ product must be about 3 × 1020 particles per cubic metre times seconds.
For example, when the plasma is composed of deuterium and tritium, the smallest value of nτ required to achieve ignition is about 2 × 1020 particles per cubic metre times seconds, and the required temperature corresponds to an energy of about 25,000 eV.

The Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) measures lower limb function; it incorporates balance tests, a four metre timed walk and time to stand from a chair exercise.
A validated battery of tests was used to assess motor function that included: five timed chair rises, a 6 metre timed up-and-go where participants were asked to stand from sitting, walk 3 metres, turn around and return back to the seated position; customary walking speed over 3 metres, and standing balance, where participants were timed standing on one leg with eyes open [ 46- 48].
Olympic champion Vicky Pendleton got Great Britain off to a strong start in the World Track Championships here yesterday when she blasted to bronze in the 500-metre time trial on the opening night.
This was her first appearance in the 500-metre time trial – a deceptively difficult two-lap race against the clock – at World Championships level since 2006, when she finished fourth.
To put that in perspective, that's a four-hundred-metre time that could win the national championships in all but three or four countries in the world, and medal in every national championships in the world.
