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.

Energy spectra of delayed neutrons from the precursors 93,94,95Rb and 143Cs have been measured by use of an on-line mass spectrometer and a 3He neutron spectrometer. Details of the experimental techniques, data analysis, and error estimates are given. A comparison of delayed-neutron spectra for 87Br, 93,94,95Rb, and 143Cs measured by three different laboratories is presented. Peak structures are reproduced by all laboratories, but the relative intensities below 200 keV vary according to different measurement or data analysis techniques.
