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.

How does one blaze a trail for others to follow, especially when you may be the only one from your hometown to think about entering nuclear engineering/science? Panelists will discuss, through their extensive experience, how outreach through nuclear science related activities as well as other efforts can help give back to the communities we call home as well as leave a path for others to follow in.
