OSTI ID:5209568
This report is the latest in a series of approximately triennial program reviews that have strongly influenced U.S. fusion policy. Topics and issues include the magnetic fusion advisory committees findings on advances in the technical bases, including tandem mirrors, tokamaks, the Elmo bumpy tori, reversed field pinches, and stellarators. Principle findings and recommendations on the fusion program in the U.S. cover the benefits of international cooperation and research in other nations. A table of the present international effort on various confinement approaches is given.
