Experimental Tokamak

An Experimental Tokamak is a device designed to study nuclear fusion, the process that powers the sun. It uses powerful magnetic fields to confine hot plasma—an ionized gas where fusion occurs—in a doughnut shape. By recreating the extreme conditions needed for fusion on Earth, scientists aim to develop a clean and virtually limitless energy source. Experimental Tokamaks help researchers understand plasma behavior and fusion processes, ultimately contributing to advancements in fusion energy technology, which could provide a sustainable solution to the world's energy needs.
