A new way to assess radiation damage in reactors

MIT News
One of the most effective ways to control greenhouse gas emissions, many analysts argue, is to prolong the lifetimes of existing nuclear power plants. But doing so requires monitoring the condition of many of their critical components to ensure that damage from heat and radiation has not led, and will not lead, to unsafe cracking or embrittlement.

Machine learning facilitates “turbulence tracking” in fusion reactors

MIT News
A team of researchers has demonstrated the use of computer vision models to monitor turbulent structures, known as "blobs," that appear on the edge of the super-hot fuel used in controlled-nuclear-fusion research. The super-hot fuel, or plasma, is held inside a tokamak device (right photo). On the left, a "blob" highlighted in yellow is shown in a synthetic image.
