Extractions: FFusion 2 Finnish Fusion Research Unit The Finnish Fusion Research Unit of the Association Euratom-Tekes consists of research groups from VTT Processes (programme co-ordination, fusion physics, reactor materials and plasma facing components, neutronics, socio-econimics), VTT Industrial Systems (reactor materials), VTT Automation (remote handling systems) and VTT Electronics (remote handling systems). In addition, three universities are involved: Helsinki University of Technology (fusion physics and remote handling systems), Tampere University of Technology , (remote handling systems) and Helsinki University, Accelerator Laboratory There are three research areas in the FFUSION Programme: In fusion physics and plasma engineering, the emphasis is on the interactions of intense electromagnetic radiation with fusion plasmas in plasma heating and diagnostics. Problems involving fusion reactor materials and remote handling systems are key issues in the design of future fusion reactors. Joint projects in the field of special materials, superconductors, coatings, joining techniques and remote handling have been initiated with universities, research institutes and companies. Fusion Physics and Plasma Engineering The main issues in the controlled fusion research are plasma confinement and heating. In tokamaks, a hot plasma is confined and isolated by strong magnetic fields which prevent the cooling of the fusion plasma. Radio-frequency (rf) heating is used in many present fusion devices and it is one of the proposed heating methods for ITER. The rf-power is coupled to the plasma via an antenna or grill structure and the wave propagation and later absorption deposit the heating power well inside the plasma.

Extractions: Nuclear Fusion is a process in which hydrogen atoms fuse to form helium atoms. The advantages to this are that this process produces the same amount of energy, kilogram for kilogram, as the best modern energy source, nuclear fission. Nuclear fission also does not produce dangerous radioactive wasteonly helium. The process of nuclear fusion, evident in stars, including the Sun, releases enormous amount of energy. It occurs when the nuclei of lighter elements (such as Hydrogen) are fused together at extremely high temperatures and pressures to form heavier elements (such as helium). The core of the sun is estimated to be 27 million degrees fahrenheit. At this extreme temperature, hydrogen atoms melt, or fuse together releasing tremendous amounts of heat and light. The disadvantage of nuclear fusion is that it is very hard to get a self-sustaining fusion reaction going. The reason for this is that you have to heat the hydrogen up to extreme temperatures. Quite often, it takes more energy to do so than is produced in the reaction. People are working on ways to make it practical, but it is unlikely that nuclear fusion will become a viable energy source before about 2015 or so.

Extractions: Nuclear Fusion Top Research Priority for Europe BRUSSELS, Belgium, June 17, 2002 (ENS) - Europe is investing Û 1.230 billion in nuclear research, the European Commission announced today. Most of the funds will go towards research and development of nuclear fusion, the same reaction that takes place within the Sun. The more traditional nuclear fission program will focus on the management and disposal of radioactive waste and foster close research co-operation between national waste management agencies of the 15 European Union Member States. EU Research Commissioner Philippe Busquin of Belgium (Photo courtesy European Commission) EU Research Commissioner Philippe Busquin said today, "Safe and clean nuclear energy is a priority for sustainable development. It can greatly contribute to meeting Kyoto Treaty requirements. And there is a clear need for EU action to pool together know how and resources in state of the art nuclear research at European level." Anti-nuclear citizens groups, such as Belgium based coalition Mother Earth, oppose the policy. "Today there is enough evidence that nowhere in the world has the industry been able to demonstrate that it can safely deal with the highly dangerous wastes that are an inevitable consequence of the nuclear fuel cycle."

All atoms are made up of three particles: protons, which have a positive electric charge; electrons, which are negatively charged; and neutrons, which have no electrical charge. The protons and neutrons combine to create the nucleus, which is the centre of an atom. "isotopes" . Most elements have several isotopes. For example, carbon-12 (C-12) is an isotope of carbon with an atomic mass of 12, whereas carbon-14 (C-14) is carbon with an atomic mass of 14. Isotopes have the same chemical properties, but often have slightly different physical properties, due to the differences in their mass.

Food Nuclear reactors in commission today produce energy by fission, that is, splitting radioactive uranium atoms and harnessing the energy that is released. An alternative design is fusion, fusing two atomic nuclei into a larger nucleus. The advantage to nuclear fusion, which was used in the hydrogen bomb, is that fewer waste products are produced, and the fuel supply is less hazardous than uranium. The disadvantage is that fusion requires so much energy to fuse the nuclei, that it has not been possible to create more energy than is consumed. HyperPhysics: Nuclear Fusion

You and I are solar powered, at least indirectly. It is the Sun's energy that grows plants that (one way or another) we eat and get our energy from. Until Einstein derived E = mc from his special theory of relativity it was a complete mystery as to what the fuel source of the Sun was. For example, it had been calculated that if the Sun was made of coal it would use up its total fuel supply in about 6000 years. With an ever-increasing understanding of the age of the Solar System, based mainly on geological research, it was clear that there must be a process going on within the Sun that we didn't understand. We now know that the Sun is about 4.5 billion years old and has about the same length of time before it will have used up all of its fuel. This page deals with nuclear fusion, and in doing so explains why the Sun can produce so much energy over such a long period of time. The Sun.

Extractions: What makes the sun shine? How does the sun produce the vast amount of energy necessary to support life on earth? These questions challenged scientists for a hundred and fifty years, beginning in the middle of the nineteenth century. Theoretical physicists battled geologists and evolutionary biologists in a heated controversy over who had the correct answer. Why was there so much fuss about this scientific puzzle? The nineteenth-century astronomer John Herschel described eloquently the fundamental role of sunshine in all of human life in his 1833 Treatise on Astronomy: The sun's rays are the ultimate source of almost every motion which takes place on the surface of the earth. By its heat are produced all winds,...By their vivifying action vegetables are elaborated from inorganic matter, and become, in their turn, the support of animals and of man, and the sources of those great deposits of dynamical efficiency which are laid up for human use in our coal strata. Sunshine makes life possible on earth.

Nuclear fusion Fusion energy, the awesome power behind the sun and stars, has long been the "holy grail" of nuclear researchers world wide. Its proponents argue the vast potential for cheap, clean energy from hydrogen isotopes extracted from sea water, without the long term radioactive waste associated with nuclear fission. In simple terms, the fusion process works by combining light atoms, such as isotopes of hydrogen, under very high temperatures and pressures to make heavier ones, such as helium. Fission is the opposite: it starts with very heavy atoms, such as uranium, and splits them into two or more pieces called "fission fragments" or "fission products". Both fission and fusion release large quantities of energy, which can be converted into heat and electricity. Nuclear fusion does produce radioactive waste. However, in contrast to fission produced wastes, they are short lived and decay to background levels in a very short time. While great strides have been made over the past few decades, the high cost of research, and very expensive hardware, limits most of the work to multi-national consortia. Current research efforts are focused in two main areas: inertial confinement and magnetic confinement. A third method, so called "cold fusion", had the research community all a-buzz in the early 1990's with the prospect of a much cheaper alternative. Although cold fusion still has its supporters, most of the mainstream scientific community has dismissed it "poor science" (or worse).

Extractions: Dr Alan Sykes Fusion is the form of nuclear energy that powers the stars. Although, it has many advantages over conventional nuclear power, it has been technically difficult to develop. The best approach appears to be to confine a superhot gas, called a plasma, in a magnetic field. Some success has been achieved this way using huge experimental fusion reactors. But now, according to United Kingdom Atomic Energy Authority (UKAEA) scientists, making smaller versions of the same equipment may be technically easier, cheaper and swifter to develop. The most recent experiments show promise, they claim.

Extractions: The Cosmic Solution The world longs for two things now: a way for all of humanity to prosper and a way for humanity to prosper together with our environment. Fusion energy can provide both things: energy that is both much safer and cleaner than present forms of nuclear power and an infinite source of power that can be harnessed anywhere with fuel that can be freely available to all nations. Human induced climate change, most likely in the form of global warming, is presently controversial but it is not likely to remain so. In less than a decade, perhaps even a few years, the planet-wide effects of too much carbon dioxide in the atmosphere will be an undisputed fact and the controversy will center on how to stop it or remediate its effects. As the stark realization of its reality penetrates public awareness, there will be increasing pressure for quick fixes. It is likely that nuclear energy, in some form, will be seen as part of the solution. It is true that solar and other renewable forms of energy can fill part of the gap, but they are also material and capital intensive and will require many years to implement, and alone they cannot compare with the massive and weather-independent nature of fossil fuels or nuclear power. Our concern is that without the safe, clean form of energy that fusion offers the door will be opened for increasing levels of energy from nuclear fission. France and Japan have demonstrated that a conversion to nuclear energy is possible without economic disruption. However, what about the costs to our environment and safety? In the face of global warming, dare we proceed without an alternative to both fossil fuels and fission nuclear energy? Fusion may also help us soft land in what will ultimately be a solar economy.

Extractions: Next: Cold Fusion Up: Conversion of Mass to Energy Previous: Potential Energy is Mass, Too! Actually, a large nucleus is rarely heavier than the sum of its constituents. If you think about it, this is the equivalent of having a ball stored at the top of a potential energy hill Once it moves over the edge, the process is all downhill, resulting in liberation of kinetic energy. The heaviest nuclei represent stored-up energy from "endothermic'' (energy-absorbing) processes that took place in SUPERNOVA explosions billions of years ago, and are in that sense correctly referred to as "supernova fossils.'' Anything heavier than iron falls into this category! Nuclei lighter than iron ( Fe), if they can be regarded as composed of lighter nuclei, are almost always lighter than the sum of their constituents, simply because their BINDING ENERGY is greater. The process of combining light nuclei to make heavier ones (up to iron) is called NUCLEAR FUSION , which also liberates kinetic energy.

(Dr. Eugene Mallove, http://www.infinite-energy.com/) Discussion of Physics (Experimental and Theoretical) of Cold Fusion, and the important consequences for Humanity of understanding Cold Fusion as a useful form of Alternative Energy. Currently Physics (and thus all human knowledge) is founded on the concepts of particles and forces in Space and Time, which assumes the existence of four separate things. This causes many problems for Humanity because the necessary connection between these things is unknown. The Metaphysics of Space and Motion and the Wave Structure of Matter (WSM) solves these problems by describing Reality in terms of One thing, Space, existing with the Properties of a Wave Medium. Matter is formed from Spherical Standing Waves in Space which cause the 'particle' effect at their Wave Center Time is due to the Wave Motion (activity) of Space.

Extractions: No other scientific endeavour has consumed so much talent, so much cash and so many years of sustained effort as the race to harness the power that makes the Sun shine. Billions of pounds, (and dollars, roubles and yen), more than four decades of research and the careers of thousands of physicists have been expended on the search for a nuclear reactor that will generate limitless power from the fusion of hydrogen atoms. There are grey-haired professors with lined faces still poring intently over the equations they first looked at eagerly with bright young eyes in the 1940s and 1950s. They will go into retirement with their dreams of cheap, safe power from fusion still years in the future. For the obstacles in their paths are as formidable now as ever. Fusion is the process taking place in the Sun's core where, at temperatures of millions of degrees, hydrogen atoms are compressed together by elemental forces to form helium and a massive outpouring of energy in the thermonuclear reaction of the hydrogen bomb. It is not difficult, then, to imagine how people who have invested their talent and their lives in the quest to tame such forces are likely to react when told that fusion is possible at room temperature, and in a jam jar.

Extractions: C. Nuclear Fusion Nuclear fusion occurs when two small nuclei join together to form a larger nucleus. A large amount of energy is released during fusion. Nuclear fusion occurs within the sun and the stars. Fusion in the sun is believed to occur in steps. Four protons produce one atom, two positrons, and two neutrinos. The first two steps shown below must occur twice before the third step takes place: Fusion in stars produces all of the chemical elements found on Earth. Sunlight is energy released from fusion reactions in the sun. Examining the spectral characteristics of stars may provide a better understanding of fusion. Fusion is believed to be possible only under extremely high temperatures. For this reason it is referred to as a thermonuclear reaction. The use of nuclear fusion for commercial purposes is currently being investigated. One reaction that may eventually be able to produce controlled fusion is:
