Fusion energy promises a virtually limitless, clean energy source. Unlike nuclear fission, which splits atomic nuclei, fusion replicates the process powering the sun, combining atoms to release vast amounts of power. At the forefront of this pursuit are tokamaks – experimental reactors meticulously designed to achieve and study the extraordinarily hot plasma needed for fusion.
Scientists across the globe are pushing the boundaries of fusion research. From the vast ITER project in France to smaller, focused experiments in the US, China, Europe, and beyond, researchers tirelessly explore innovative approaches to make fusion a reality. Join us on a photo-driven journey into the heart of tokamak research!
