Nuclear News 40 Under 40—2025
Last year, we proudly launched the inaugural Nuclear News 40 Under 40 list to shine a spotlight on the exceptional young professionals driving the nuclear sector forward as the nuclear community faces a dramatic generational shift. We weren’t sure how a second list would go over, but once again, our members resoundingly answered the call, confirming what we already knew: The nuclear community is bursting with vision, talent, and extraordinary dedication.

In order to enable a compact design of the next generation tokamak, 16 T is desired as the maximum magnetic field of its toroidal coil. In Japan Atomic Energy Research Institute (JAERI), for the development of the 16-T toroidal coil, the one-meter-size 16-T demonstration coil program is now being discussed for the next project. As the research and development work for the high field toroidal coil, the segment test program, the FC program and the PHOENIX program are in progress. These programs have showed excellent results and is now going toward the 16-T demonstration coil as the target.
