Where do you get fusion news?

- willis936 6y agoWell, I work on a fusion research machine in an academic setting, so weekly seminars. I hear about startups from coworkers, but I’m not too interested in them because I am jaded about their prospects. I understand that they are considered moonshots by VC, but I still think their chance of success is 0%. I’d love to be proven wrong, but a lot of smart people have been working on this for a long time. I don’t think we’ll be shaking out any magical revelations anytime soon. Advancements in turbulent transport is where the important work lies imo. Anything funded by DoE (which is a lot) necessarily has to keep all publications public. Just because you don’t have a subscription to Nuclear Fusion or IEEE Transactions on Plasma doesn’t mean you can’t learn about what’s going on for free. It’s unfortunately just a pain to find. Look for papers hosted on websites of projects at PPPL, ORNL, UWisc, IPP, etc.
