Status and outlook of controlled nuclear fusion
Abstract
Plausible techniques for future energy production are outlined and a close look is taken at the thermonuclear fusion picture. The present state of the art in plasma heating and confinement techniques is reviewed. Prospective timetables for achieving milestones in fusion research and technology are considered, along with the advantages and unsolved problems in fusion technology.
