FusionBenchmark

Devices

130 fusion devices, 78 with parameters directly comparable across machines.

These are design parameters, not shot results — a machine's major radius is a property of how it was built, not something it achieved. They are recorded as claimed for built devices and planned for those still under construction, and none of them appear on the achieved benchmark. For measured performance see the benchmark.
