Jet Plasma Fusion

Fusion happens when two light elements fuse, and they release more energy than an what they had before. Jet stands for joint european touris the shape of the reactor is included in the name. As the plasma heats up, it wants to expand outwards. It wants to collide with other matter, which in turn cools it back down. The solution is to trap it with big magnets, forcing it to spiral round the reactor. And the researches here at jet have had success. At the end of last year, a team set a new record for long fusion ever, recorded, five seconds.
