Model predicts scenarios for energy generation using nuclear fusion | EurekAlert! Science News: A study by Brazilian researcher helps scientists understand and control physical processes that are essential to the success of ITER, a fusion reactor designed to reproduce on a small scale the process that generates energy in the sun. A future fusion reactor would feature advantages when compared to nuclear fission technology: in addition to the absence of radioactive waste, its system works by a self-control physical process that prevents overheating problems.
