Magnetic-Confinement Fusion Without the Magnets

Zap Energy’s FuZE-Q demonstration reactor is slated for completion in mid-2022. Tokamaks, which use magnets to contain the high-temperature plasma in which atomic nuclei fuse and release energy, have captured the spotlight in recent months, due to tremendous advances in superconducting magnets. Despite these gains, though, traditional magnetic-confinement fusion is still years away from fulfilling…
