14 Dec (NucNet) : Scientists at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) in Germany say they have reached a milestone in a quest to derive energy from nuclear fusion by starting up one of the world’s largest nuclear fusion machines for the first time and briefly generating a super-heated helium plasma inside a vessel – a key point in the experimental process.
The 16-metre-wide machine is the Wendelstein 7-X, a type of nuclear fusion device called a stellarator.
