At the Institute, research is being carried out on inertial confinement fusion using lasers, as well as on fusion with strong magnetic fields in collaboration with scientists from leading European universities.

Implementation

• Mitigation of instabilitiies on inertial confinement fusion targets 
• Modelling of the RE-induced W damage experiments in WEST and AUG
• Foams as a pathway to energy from high gain direct drive ignition
