New X-ray imaging for ITER-supporting tokamaks
As researchers continue to seek ways to better understand the plasma inside fusion machines to fully harness fusion energy, Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory is leading a project to provide new X-ray imaging systems to two international tokamak projects: WEST, in southern France, and JT-60SA, in Japan—both of which are designed to support the development of ITER.

National laboratories have been largely responsible for the development and implementation of groundbreaking and novel technologies that are the cornerstone of nuclear science and technology. In this panel, the differences between a career in industry, academia, or at a national lab will be discussed. Additionally, the panelists will share insight on why and how to pursue a career in a national laboratory. View Friederike Bostelmann's Presentation
