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.

Neutron transmission through a zirconium oxide sample containing the radioactive 93Zr isotope was measured by pulsed neutron time of flight. R matrix parameters for some of the resonances up to 6-keV neutron energy were determined. The first resonance, for example, was found at (110.43 ± 0.01) eV with partial widths Гn = (348 ± 9) meV and Гγ = (141 ± 21) meV and quantum numbers Jπ = 2+.
