Fusion research, levitated diopole device
Nuclear fusion research. Levitated dipole experiment (LDX) device (cryostat) being constructed at the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center, Columbia University, USA. LDX is run by Dr Darren Garnier and will use a levitated magnet to confine a hydrogen plasma in its magnetic field. Experiments hope to show that under the correct conditions the plasma can undergo fusion. Nuclear fusion is the joining (fusing) of light elements to form heavier elements, which releases large amounts of energy. It is hoped that fusion will be a clean, renewable energy source for the future

14"x12" (36x31cm) Antique Frame
Bevelled wood effect frame, card mounted, 10x8 archival quality photo print. Overall outside dimensions 14x12 inches (36x31cm). Environmentally and ozone friendly, the Polycore® moulding has the look of real wood, is durable and light and easy to hang. Biodegradable and made with non-chlorinated gases (no toxic fumes) it is efficient; producing 100 tons of polystyrene can save 300 tons of trees! Prints are glazed with lightweight, shatterproof, optical clarity acrylic (providing the same general protection from the environment as glass). The back is stapled hardboard with a sawtooth hanger attached. Note: To minimise original artwork cropping, for optimum layout, and to ensure print is secure, the visible print may be marginally smaller

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the construction of a groundbreaking device at the MIT Plasma Science and Fusion Center, Columbia University in the USA. The levitated diopole experiment (LDX) device, led by Dr Darren Garnier, aims to revolutionize fusion research. With its cryostat structure taking shape, this cutting-edge technology will employ a levitated magnet to confine a hydrogen plasma within its magnetic field. The ultimate goal of these experiments is to demonstrate that under specific conditions, this confined plasma can undergo fusion – the process of fusing light elements together to form heavier ones while releasing vast amounts of energy. Nuclear fusion holds immense promise as a clean and renewable energy source for our future. As we delve into this mesmerizing image, we witness technicians meticulously assembling cables and wires that connect various chambers and devices within the LDX reactor. The intricate network of electromagnetic technologies hints at the complexity involved in harnessing atomic energies for peaceful purposes. With every component carefully constructed inside this state-of-the-art vessel, scientists are pushing boundaries in their quest for sustainable energy solutions. This photograph encapsulates not only the scientific prowess but also highlights America's leadership in technological advancements within the nuclear fusion industry. Science Photo Library has captured an extraordinary moment in time where innovation meets ambition on an unprecedented scale. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), it becomes evident that humanity's pursuit of unlocking limitless clean energy potential is well underway.
