Pushing the envelope with fusion magnets

David Fischer sits beside the experiment’s vacuum chamber (illuminated in blue), where the high temperature superconductor tapes will be mounted for proton irradiation and in situ transport current measurement. His laptop shows data obtained in such measurements — the basis for determining the critical current.

3 Questions: The price of privacy in ride-sharing app performance

Masking location data helps avoid the identification of users in case of a security breach, but this loss of information can also lead to poorer quality of service in a location-based ride-sharing app.

Validating the physics behind the new MIT-designed fusion experiment

Plasma Science and Fusion Center

This image shows a cutaway rendering of SPARC, a compact, high-field, DT burning tokamak, currently under design by a team from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Commonwealth Fusion Systems. Its mission is to create and confine a plasma that produces net fusion energy. Credits:Image: CFS/MIT-PSFC — CAD Rendering by T. Henderson

New record for fusion

Plasma Science and Fusion Center

The interior of the fusion experiment Alcator C-Mod at MIT recently broke the plasma pressure record for a magnetic fusion device. The interior of the donut-shaped device confines plasma hotter than the interior of the sun, using high magnetic fields. Postdoc Ted Golfinopoulos, shown here, is performing maintenance between plasma campaigns. Credits:Photo: Bob Mumgaard/Plasma Science and Fusion Center
