Nuclear Fusion X: Doldrums and Tokamaks

After the first generation of nuclear fusion reactors had
profound instabilities, and couldn't confine the plasma for long

fusion might not be just ten years away from reality - and the
whole field sank into the doldrums... until a very Soviet

Physical Attraction is the podcast about physics, science, and
technology. You can find further details about the show
at www.physicspodcast.com - where you'll find the
contact form, for any comments, questions, or concerns you may
have. [I'm very good at responding to stuff that isn't
spam.] 

You can also donate to the show
via www.paypal.me/physicspodcast and you can subscribe
to our Patreon via www.patreon.com/PhysicalAttraction .
Both will give you the opportunity to purchase our past bonus
episodes for a nominal donation! 

The best way you can support the show, though, is to tell as many
people about it as you possibly can. 

You can engage with us on social media - Twitter @physicspod and
Facebook, Physical Attraction. 

Until next time, take care.
