Nuclear Problems of Thermonuclear Power Generation

详细

The current status of the nuclear problems of the thermonuclear fusion research program and, in particular, tritium, is discussed. It is noted that thermonuclear power generation without a uranium or thorium blanket is problematic; the key nuclear problems of the fusion–fission hybrid system remain unsolved. It is proposed that an integrated strategic analysis be made of the thermonuclear research program and the realistic possibilities of its application in nuclear power-engineering.
