North American construction is back—smaller and faster—at OPG’s Darlington
“The nuclear renaissance is real here,” said Ontario Power Generation’s Subo Sinnathamby on May 8, one year to the day after OPG secured a final investment decision to build the first of four planned BWRX-300 reactors at its Darlington nuclear power plant, and shortly after the new reactor’s foundation was lifted into place. “We got our license to construct in April and our [final investment decision] in May, and we’ve been off to the races since.”

Loss-cone boundaries have been directly measured using a newly developed diagnostic device in the tandem mirror GAMMA 10. Double loss boundaries clearly appeared in the velocity space of the end-loss ions in the experiment without plug ECRH, and upon turning on the ECRH, the double boundaries changed to a single loss boundary. From a microscopic viewpoint of the ion distribution function, it was verified that plug potential was created turning on ECRH without producing sloshing ions by neutral beam injection. Time evolution of plasma potentials is discussed.
