| Description | The U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) is a collaborative national center for plasma and fusion science. Its primary mission is to develop the scientific understanding and the key innovations which will lead to an attractive fusion energy source. Associated missions include conducting world-class research along the broad frontier of plasma science and technology, and providing the highest quality of scientific education. [Copied from PPPL – An Overview at http://www.pppl.gov/polDoc.cfm?Doc_Id=49] It is the home of the Tokamak Fusion Test Reactor (TFTR) and is a key player in many plasma and fusion energy research projects. These include the National Spherical Torus Experiment, the National Compact Stellarator Experiment, and the international ITER project that will use the largest Tokamak in the world to demonstrate the feasibility of commercial power from fusion energy. The talks and the guests giving them at the Colloquia sessions held weekly at PPPL are as high-powered and complex as PPPL’s science. This collection includes 20 video presentations from 2007, 28 videos from 2008, and a growing set of 2009 videos. Real Player is required to view the earlier videos, but many of the sessions are also made available as a PDF document or a PowerPoint presentation. | ||
