Description

Plasma and Fusion research at Queen's University is a part of a program of research in Applied Magnetics. Studies in plasma and fusion are centred around fusion reactions. The basic strategy is to choose a reaction with high energy yield and is easy to fuse. Easy energy capture, radioactivity involved might also be important. At first glance, we note deuterium-tritium has a very high energy yield. Next step is to understand how likely a reaction is to occur. The paper also summarises various fusion schemes and relevant fusion devices
