Finding the questions that guide MIT fusion research

Plasma Science and Fusion Center

“I’m from the '60s generation,” says Martin Greenwald. “We were very political and always asking, ‘what’s the relevance?’ We wanted our life’s work to mean something.”

Seeing the plasma edge of fusion experiments in new ways with artificial in...

Plasma Science and Fusion Center

Visualized are two-dimensional pressure fluctuations within a larger three-dimensional magnetically confined fusion plasma simulation. With recent advances in machine-learning techniques, these types of partial observations provide new ways to test reduced turbulence models in both theory and experiment.
