Description

The mission of the Tokamak Physics Experiment (TPX) is to develop the scientific basis for an economic, compact, and steady-state tokamak fusion reactor. This will require the development and demonstration of stable, steady-state tokamak operating regimes, with high β, high confinement, and high bootstrap fraction
