WASHINGTON, June 12 (TNSres) -- The U.S. Department of Energy's Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory issued the following news:
The furious exhaust heat generated by a fusing plasma in a commercial-scale reactor may not be as damaging to the vessel's innards as once thought, according to researchers at the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), Oak Ridge National Laboratory and the ITER Organization(ITER).
