Development of Rogowski probe for internal plasma current measurement in the collisional merging process of field-reversed configurations

October 2022 | J. Ogasawara (Nihon) | Review of Scientific Instruments | Paper

To directly detect the spatial distribution of a plasma current during the collisional merging of two FRCs in the FAT-CM device, an internal current probe using Rogowski coils has been developed.

The Biological Theory That Explains Why Investors Are Bullish on Fusion

For a field that has existed for more than 60 years, a lot has happened in fusion research in the last half-decade. In fusion’s case, a trio of technological advances converged in the early 2010s to unleash a wave of innovation. “I think you see this beautiful inflection point in this field where the science maturity and technical capability come together,” said Michl Binderbauer, CEO of TAE Technologies.
