Fusion reactor EAST (Advanced experimental superconducting tokamak), known as “artificial sun” Chinabroke his record by creating and maintaining plasma tightly closed and hot for seven minutes.

He EASTlocated in the Chinese city of Hefei (east), managed to establish and maintain plasma by 403 seconds, surpassing its previous record of 101 seconds, set in 2017, is being collected today by the state-run Xinhua News Agency.

The agency describes this new record as “a key step in the development fusion reactor”.

to fusion energy

According to scholar Song Yuntao, quoted Xinhuatemperature and particle density increased significantly during this operation plasma high tightness, which will lay “a solid foundation for improving the power generation efficiency of future fusion power plants and reducing costs.”

Final goal EASTlocated at the Institute of Plasma Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (ASIPP) in Hefei, is to create solar-like nuclear fusion using substances found in the sea to provide a constant flow of clean energy.

Since commissioning in 2006 EASTdesigned and developed ChinaAccording to Xinhua, it was “an open testing platform for Chinese and foreign scientists to conduct experiments and research related to fusion.”

At present, the project of the future thermonuclear test reactor China (CFETR, its abbreviation in English), is considered “artificial sun”next generation to build the world’s first demonstration fusion reactor. EFE
