Alfonso Garcia (fusion physicist)

Alfonso Garcia is a fusion physicist known for his research in nuclear fusion, the process that powers the sun and stars. He focuses on how to replicate this process on Earth to create a clean and nearly limitless energy source. Garcia's work involves studying plasma behavior—superheated gases consisting of charged particles—and developing technology that can stabilize it for fusion reactions. Successful fusion would provide a sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, reducing greenhouse gas emissions and addressing climate change challenges. His contributions are important in advancing our understanding and potential for practical fusion energy.
