Description
A discussion exploring the pathway to commercialisation, the remaining physics and engineering challenges, and expectations for emerging magnetic mirror approaches for power generation and volumetric neutron sources.
- What is the current status of mirror machines among fusion approaches?
- How have recent innovations accelerated mirror-based fusion approaches
- What is the technical and commercial potential for magnetic mirrors as volumetric neutron sources?
- What barriers remain to achieving break-even in private-sector mirror fusion?
