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 spectra are measured by the time-of-flight method at laboratory angles from 15 to 120 degfor the reaction Ag(l4N,n) at 50 MeV/nucleon. All spectra are fitted with a moving-source model. The cross-section dependences on bombarding energy and on projectile mass are investigated by comparison with published neutron data from the reactions Ag(14N,n) at 35 MeV/nucleon and Ag(36Ar,n) at 35 MeV/nucleon. Application to biological hazard estimation is anticipated.
