The Department of Energy sponsors a laboratory that is currently working on magnetic fusion devices based on what principle?
National Spherical Torus Experiment The National Spherical Torus Experiment (NSTX) is an innovative magnetic fusion device based on the "spherical tokamak" concept. It was constructed by the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) in collaboration with the Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Columbia University, and the University of Washington at Seattle.
Trident laser The Trident Laser is a high power, sub-petawatt class, solid-state laser facility located at Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL website), in Los Alamos, New Mexico, originally built in the late 1980s for Inertial confinement fusion (ICF) research by KMS Fusion, founded by Kip Siegel, in Ann Arbor, Michigan, it was later moved to Los Alamos in the early 1990s to be used in ICF and materials research. The system is now being decommissioned with final laser experiments being completed February 2017.
