Princeton-led team develops AI for fusion plasma monitoring
A new AI software tool for monitoring and controlling the plasma inside nuclear fuel systems has been developed by an international collaboration of scientists from Princeton University, Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL), Chung-Ang University, Columbia University, and Seoul National University. The software, which the researchers call Diag2Diag, is described in the paper, “Multimodal super-resolution: discovering hidden physics and its application to fusion plasmas,” published in Nature Communications.

Comparison of many experimental methods and investigation of their systematic errors are indicated for the measurement of the ratio of the epicadmium 238U neutron capture rate to the subcadmium 238U capture rate in a slightly 235U-enriched (1.143%) fuel rod. An explanation of the discrepancy between theory and experiment is given.
