We need tremendous energy output without melting the walls of our fusion reactors. Experiments at d3dfusion.org show promise for a negative triangularity scenario. Modeling identifies the adjustments that might make this a real solution. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6587/adf881

Plasma science determines many characteristics of fusion energy reactors. Instabilities in the plasma edge correlate to the power exhaust reaching the walls. This exhaust can be expelled in highly concentrated regions, setting challenging requirements for materials.

If you enjoy fusion energy discussions in short form, please consider joining Bluesky. Right now, fusion energy topics are a small part of the Science and Physics feeds, but we could change that! There seems to be an infinite number of dog related feeds on Bluesky. Relevant image below.

The negative triangularity plasma scenario is shaking up fusion energy research due to its high performance and ability to significantly reduce the engineering requirements for a reactor. New research shows how to optimize this scenario.

Gratitude to the Fusion Industry Association (FIA) for hosting a great Annual Policy Conference! I took pride introducing the DIII-D National Fusion Facility and announcing that eight FIA member organizations are DIII-D users conducting fundamental R&D at the facility.
