New fusion energy research from d3dfusion.org shows how integrated modeling accurately reproduces plasma behavior. This improves simpler methods that overestimate fusion power output. R.S. Wilcox, et al., Nucl. Fusion 66, 036005 (2026), https://doi.org/10.1088/1741-4326/ae3845

Schematic of research at the DIII-D National Fusion Facility in which integrated models reproduce plasma pedestal structure. Experiments utilized three different divertor geometries to build a comprehensive data set for comparing against different optimizations of integrated models. This work is published in R.S. Wilcox et al 2026 Nucl. Fusion 66 036005, DOI 10.1088/1741-4326/ae3845
