What these terms mean
Every classification on this page, defined. These are controlled-vocabulary terms, so the same word means the same thing on every profile.
- Fusion developer
- Develops a fusion device or power plant concept. Carries no implication that the device exists or works.
- Fusion
- Organizations pursuing energy from nuclear fusion, and their dedicated supply chain.
- Stellarator › › Stellarator
- Confinement produced entirely by external coils twisted into complex three-dimensional shapes, with no current driven through the plasma. Far harder to build than a tokamak and inherently steady-state rather than pulsed.
- Deuterium–tritium
- Lowest ignition threshold; 80% of energy in 14.1 MeV neutrons. The reference fuel for every near-term net-gain claim.
