  • Highest fusion performance without harmful edge energy bursts

    Highest fusion performance without harmful edge energy bursts

    Led by Sangkyeun Kim, we achieved the highest fusion performance without harmful edge energy bursts in two separate tokamaks, KSTAR and DIII-D. This work combined physics and AI to control the fusion plasma.
