Heliotron J

Heliotron J is a type of nuclear fusion experiment located in Japan. Its goal is to create clean and sustainable energy by replicating the processes that power the sun. Heliotron J uses magnetic fields to confine and manipulate extremely hot plasma, a gas of charged particles, which is necessary for fusion to occur. By achieving the conditions needed for fusion, researchers hope to harness this energy source, potentially providing a powerful and abundant energy solution while reducing reliance on fossil fuels. The project contributes to the broader field of fusion research, aiming to make it a viable energy resource.
