High-temperature fusion plasma experiments conducted in the Large Helical Device (LHD) of the National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS), have renewed the world record for an acquired data amount, 0.92 terabytes (TB) per experiment, in February 2022, by using a full range of state-of-the-art plasma diagnostic devices. The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER), which is currently under construction in France through the international collaboration of seven parties, is expected to generate approximately 1 TB of data per experiment in 10 years, and LHD is currently the only experiment in the world that produces data closely aligned to ITER. The promotion of "Open Science," in which large-scale research data assets are utilized and shared across society, was adopted as a joint statement at the G7 meeting held in Sendai, Japan in 2023. NIFS started full-fledged efforts toward Open Science by establishing the "Open Access Policy" in February 2022 and the "Research Data Policy" in October 2022.

World’s largest fusion reactor produces its first plasma

"A significant step forward in the quest for practical fusion energy was taken last week when the world’s newest and largest fusion reactor fired up.

Japan’s JT-60SA fusion reactor has produced its first plasma at the JT-60SA research facility, demonstrating the ability to generate a high-temperature cloud of ionized atoms. The research will advance to the next phase, which involves building and testing an experimental fusion reactor that can sustain plasma for long periods and extract useful energy from it.

Nuclear fusion reactions power the Sun and other stars. Nuclear fusion is the process of forcing together two light atomic nuclei and creating a heavier one, releasing enormous amounts of energy in the process.

On Earth, scientists are working to replicate this phenomenon and harness its potential for clean, safe, and abundant electricity production. Fusion energy could help meet the growing demand for energy from a rising global population while minimizing the environmental impact and ensuring long-term fuel availability.

The JT-60SA uses superconducting coils to generate magnetic fields that confine a blazingly hot plasma of ionized gas inside a doughnut-shaped vacuum vessel, where hydrogen nuclei can fuse and release energy. The four-story-high machine is designed to hold a plasma heated to 200 million degrees Celsius for about 100 seconds, much longer than previous large-scale tokamaks.

JT-60SA will also support ITER, the massive international fusion reactor being built in France that aims to demonstrate how fusion can generate more energy than goes into producing it. JT-60SA will test technologies and operating expertise that ITER will depend on."

There's a lot going on in the world of fusion right now.

A lot of people are missing why ITER is so expensive and why fusion research is just now getting to the point where it seems feasible for a lot of other companies that aren't ITER. Like, surely we could have just waited a few more years for the technology to mature before diving headlong into this stuff right? Well, no. That's not how anything works, actually.

The ITER project is the Apollo program of fusion. NASA's Apollo project was fucking expensive okay? Tens of billions of dollars, in the sixties! ITER is $22 billion now, which is peanuts compared to Apollo which had a similar effect on industry. The whole point of Apollo, and the reason it was so expensive, is because all the technology it used was new.

Integrated circuit assembly was slow and expensive at the time, but after Apollo everyone saw how well they performed, so an entire new manufacturing process was invented to mass produce them. Fuel cells and solar panels were never going to be a thing without satellites; they were too damn expensive so no one bothered making them. New stitching methods were developed to make the spacesuits, which just so happened to have similar requirements as medical-grade machinery. Each of these industries already existed at the time, but the push to make more of them faster also led to their mass-production and reduced their cost and complexity.

So too with ITER today. Superconducting tape has been a thing, but the amount of tape ITER needs for its huge magnets is currently resulting in the development of new manufacturing methods for it. Superconductors that would have been prohibitively expensive just 10 years ago are in the realm of possibility today. And new superconductors that don't need fucking liquid helium are just starting to become available in the large quantity one needs to be useful.

Also, ITER is designed to react to fusion plasma as it changes, because when it was designed computers weren't fast enough to predict how it would act. While developing the systems needed to do this, much has been learned in terms of how plasma acts when there is fusion happening inside it. This in turn has led to better equations that predict the behavior of plasma, that can run on computers, which will likely lead to better systems for everything that handles plasma.

Basically, now that ITER has done most of the hard expensive research for fusion, smaller organizations are cropping up which will try to do each piece better. This leads to competition which, in the scientific world at least, is going to lead to a wave of rapidly-accelerating technological progress.

In short, a lot of cool stuff is about to happen in the world of fusion research in the next 5 years or so.
