100,000 Amps: New Magnets Boost Fusion Energy

Friday, July 25, 2014 - 11:20 in Physics & Chemistry

Assembling yttrium-based high-temperature superconducting tapes in order to fabricate a large-scale magnet conductor has led to the National Institute for Fusion Science (NIFS) in Japan  achieving an electrical current of 100,000 amperes, by far the highest in the world. read more
