A new agreement for a new era

The ��app and the Italian consortium Consorzio RFX* have signed a new agreement governing the construction and operation of the ��app Neutral Beam Test Facility. Ratified in a small ceremony on 25 July, the...

A colossal task made manageable

For the execution of work during the next project phase—machine and plant assembly up to First Plasma—the ��app has chosen a contractual approach that emphasizes manageably sized work packages with strong...

Heavyweight champion

The Assembly Hall, with its two giant tools towering 20 metres above ground, is one of the most spectacular locations on the ��app site. When a dummy load weighing as much as a fully loaded 747 is slowly upended...

How to go fast enough to make a difference

Last month in New York, the Stellar Energy Foundation and the Fusion Industry Association co-hosted an invitation-only workshop: "Roadmap to the Fusion Energy Economy." The Simons Foundation provided the Flatiron...

Cryostat 60% complete

When a seafaring vessel is launched, naval tradition requires that a bottle be broken on its hull to invite good luck. Although the ��app cryostat will never take to the sea, it is indeed a vessel—and a most spectacular...

��app remembers IAEA chief Yukiya Amano

The ��app has learned with sadness that the three-term Director General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), Yukiya Amano, has passed away.

Tokamak-sur-mer

Have fusion, will travel

The idea of propelling rockets and spaceships using the power of the atom is nothing new: the Manhattan Project in the mid-1940s as well as countless endeavours by NASA in the following decades all explored the...

End of story?

Thirty years ago, two electrochemists at the University of Utah, Martin Fleischmann and Stanley Pons, created a sensation when they claimed they had achieved fusion at room temperature in a tabletop experiment.

Wave of deliveries ahead

Several batches of magnet feeder components will arrive from China in September containing elements that need to be received, inspected and readied for installation early in the ��app assembly schedule. The feeder team...

Global team for better efficiency

A unique work-sharing arrangement is expediting the design and fabrication of ��app's tokamak cooling water system and building the knowledge base that will be critical to plant commissioning and operation.

How can science change the world for the better?

Every year, a group of Nobel Laureates convenes in Lindau, Germany, for a week of interaction with young scientists from all over the world. ��app was invited to take part this year in a panel discussion titled "How Can...
