Gour-Lavie said that NT-Tao has come up with an ultra-fast heating technology that will scale. He said it could generate plasma at densities that are 1,000 times higher than other leading solutions. This optimal plasma regime yields a fusion reaction that is a million times stronger, resulting in significantly more efficient energy production.
Without giving away all of its secrets, NT-Tao said it is taking the best of Tokamak technology and the best of stellarator technology and are refining those technologies to make a new design that will operate at significantly higher plasma density. The machine can heat up the plasma to huge temperatures that enable the fusion of hydrogen atoms to happen.
This gives NT-Tao the ability to generate a fusion reaction with a much smaller footprint than most of the other solutions under development. Furthermore, NT-Tao’s new magnetic chamber topology is designed to significantly reduce energy loss due to drifts, instabilities and other plasma disruptions, ensuring core temperature is maintained and creating a Super Stabilised Confined Plasma.
