The Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) is concerned with investigating the principles underlying a power plant, which – like the sun – will produce energy from the fusion of light atomic nuclei.
Researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) evidence a physical phenomenon that suppresses these energy eruptions in tokamaks. Their results have now been published in the journal ‘Nature Physics.’
Using a new approach, researchers at the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics in Greifswald have developed a stellarator design that fulfils all the basic physics requirements for a viable fusion power plant. What is behind the concept?
IPP is dedicated to training outstanding young scientists, from providing practicals for undergraduates, then bachelor, master and PhD theses, to the presentation of comprehensive courses of graduate study.
