A gyrotron converter first guides fusion product ions as a beam into a 10-meter long microwave cavity filled with a 10-tesla magnetic field, where 155 MHz microwaves are generated and converted to a high voltage DC output through rectennas. The Field-Reversed Configuration reactor ARTEMIS in this study was designed with an efficiency of 75% ...
Fusion reactors are not subject to catastrophic meltdown. [122] It requires precise and controlled temperature, pressure and magnetic field parameters to produce net energy, and any damage or loss of required control would rapidly quench the reaction. [123] Fusion reactors operate with seconds or even microseconds worth of fuel at any moment.

National Fusion Research Institute: 6.8 m / 2.1 m: 7 T: 12 MA ? Prototype for the development of commercial fusion reactors with around 2200 MW of fusion power: DEMO (DEMOnstration Power ...
ITER (initially the International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor, iter meaning "the way" or "the path" in Latin [2] [3] [4]) is an international nuclear fusion research and engineering megaproject aimed at creating energy through a fusion process similar to that of the Sun.
This is intended to be a list of important experimental reactors built for researching Fusion power. There should also be a survey article with a timeline. There should also be a survey article with a timeline.
Theta-pinch, or θ-pinch, is a type of fusion power reactor design. The name refers to the configuration of currents used to confine the plasma fuel in the reactor, arranged to run around a cylinder in the direction normally denoted as theta in polar coordinate diagrams.

The tritium breeding blanket (also known as a fusion blanket, lithium blanket or simply blanket), is a key part of many proposed fusion reactor designs. It serves several purposes; primarily it is to produce (or "breed") further tritium fuel for the nuclear fusion reaction, which owing to the scarcity of tritium would not be available in sufficient quantities, through the reaction of neutrons ...
