In transition: Commercializing fusion power
Commercial fusion power is closer than ever. There are now around 30 U.S. fusion companies, several of which claim to be on track to connect to the grid as early as the 2030s.
Tokamak and laser inertial confinement approaches benefit from decades of research at facilities such as the National Ignition Facility (NIF) at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and ITER, with alternative concepts including stellarator, magnetic mirror, and Z-pinch confinement also making notable progress as private and government funding for fusion increases.

A method for the calculation of the neutron flux in one-group P3 approximation in a reactor polycell with multizone annular clusters is presented. The cluster central zone contains multizone fuel rods. The rod and cluster neutron fluxes are assumed to be azimuthally symmetrical. Four moments in the scattering function are taken into account. The CLUST code has been developed for computing the neutron fluxes in a reactor polycell. Its numerical results are compared with those of the other codes and appear to be in good agreement with them.
