AnzeigeThe Wendelstein 7-X nuclear fusion research reactor in Greifswald has reported a new record. The triple product is the decisive factor in nuclear fusion. The record is a great achievement by the international team and "impressively demonstrates the potential of Wendelstein 7-X", said Thomas Klinger, Head of Wendelstein 7-X. Stellarator or tokamakAnzeigeAt Wendelstein 7-X, nuclear fusion is being researched using magnetic confinement. For the – longer plasma durations, which are important for a future power plant, Wendelstein 7-X is now ahead, although JET had three times the plasma volume.
