Gaming graphics card allows faster, more precise control of fusion energy experiments...

In this month's Fusion News Extra we take time to chat about a recent study conducted by CT Fusion at the University of Washington. This involved the use of GPUs to better control fusion plasma and how to keep the reaction going to stop it petering out. We are joined by Derek Sutherland, CEO and co-founder of CT Fusion, along with Kyle Morgan, a research scientist at the University of Washington. The discussion centres around the use of computers in fusion to control plasma and delves into its use with their unique concept fusion device: the Dynomak. The episode discusses the technicalities but also the overarching use of computers in fusion and where it is going next.
