No one had ever before put tritium inside any sort of magnetic confinement device. The system's unique, tunable, magnetic confinement technology and cost-effective approach to controlling temperature allow the eMax chamber to achieve low particle levels and extended MWBC (mean wafers between clean) intervals, resulting in a significant advantage in system cost-of-ownership. In plasma physics the committee recommends continued efforts toward controlled thermonuclear fusion, both magnetic confinement and inertial confinement experiments. |
