Research could Make Fusion Energy Possible
A Step Toward Fusion Energy
March 10, 2007
Science Daily — A project by University of Wisconsin-Madison researchers has come one step closer to making fusion energy possible.
The research team, headed by electrical and computer engineering Professor David Anderson and research assistant John Canik, recently proved that the Helically Symmetric eXperiment (HSX), an odd-looking magnetic plasma chamber called a stellarator, can overcome a major barrier in plasma research, in which stellarators lose too much energy to reach the high temperatures needed for fusion.
