3D model of Wendelstein 7X showing main features - helical plasma, complex coils creating magnetic field and vessel where plasma is kept.
The main difference between tokamaks - most advance reactors based on the concept of confining hot fusion plasma with a magnetic field - and stellarators is that the latter does not need plasma current to create it magnetic field and therefore is inherently […]

@plasmaphysik After #Wendelstein7X delivered in each of its experimental campaigns impressive results, fusion community could not longer ignore stellarator as a very attractive concept of fusion power plant. It resulted in a bunch of startups who claimed they want to build stellarator reactor […]
