New probe to uncover mechanisms key to fusion reactor walls
West Lafayette, IN (SPX) Aug 26, 2011 - A new tool developed by nuclear engineers at Purdue University will be hitched to an experimental fusion reactor at Princeton University to learn precisely what happens when extremely hot plasmas touch and interact with the inner surface of the reactor. The work is aimed at understanding plasma-wall interactions to help develop coatings or materials capable of withstanding the grueling con ... more
