INVESTIGATIVE ANALYSIS

Layman's Executive Summary

This document is a collection of scientific proceedings from a major 1982 international conference focused on the development of nuclear fusion as a future energy source. It detail progress in various technical methods for containing plasma and achieving controlled nuclear reactions.

Document Origin

The document was published by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) in Vienna, Austria, in cooperation with the United States Department of Energy and the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory.

Research Purpose

The research was presented to share global progress toward demonstrating the feasibility and economic viability of controlled nuclear fusion, covering magnetic confinement, inertial confinement, and related plasma physics theory.

Relevancy Analysis

" This document is a critical historical baseline for fusion research involving the US Department of Energy, which oversees labs like Sandia. The inclusion of inertial confinement and plasma theory directly informs the development of Field-Reversed Configuration (FRC) and high-energy density physics often associated with advanced aerospace propulsion and compact fusion programs. "

Extracted Verifiable Claims

  • The Ninth International Conference on Plasma Physics and Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research was held in Baltimore, Maryland, from September 1–8, 1982.
  • The conference was attended by 488 participants and 145 observers from 31 countries and five international organizations.
  • The publication was printed by the IAEA in Austria in June 1983 with the ISBN 92-0-130183-9.
  • The event was organized in co-operation with the United States Department of Energy and the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory.
  • A total of 147 papers were presented during the technical sessions, including two poster sessions.

Technical Contribution

It serves as a comprehensive technical record of the global state-of-the-art in fusion technology during the early 1980s, providing a benchmark for the transition from theoretical plasma physics to experimental fusion reactors.

II INTERNATIONAL ATOMIC ENERGY AGENCY VIENNA, 1983 PLASMA PHYSICS AND CONTROLLED NUCLEAR FUSION RESEARCH 1982 IAEA, VIENNA, 1983 STI/PUB/626 ISBN 92-0-130183-9 FOREWORD Considerable progress towards demonstrating the feasibility of controlled fusion as well as economically favourable fusion reactor characteristics was reported at the Ninth IAEA Conference on Plasma Physics and Controlled Nuclear Fusion Research. This progress extends to all approaches to controlled fusion and fusion technology. The Conference was organized by the Agency in co-operation with the United States Department of Energy, with the assistance of the Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory. It took place on 1—8 September, 1982, in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, and was attended by 488 participants and 145 observers from 31 countries and five international organizations. One hundred and forty-seven papers were presented at the technical sessions, including two poster sessions. They included contributions on theory, open and closed magnetic confinement systems, inertial confinement systems, and related technology. The traditional Artsimovich Memorial Lecture was given at the beginning of the Conference. These Proceedings, which include all the technical papers and four con- ference summaries, are published in English as a supplement to the IAEA journal, Nuclear Fusion. The Agency promotes close international co-operation among plasma and fusion physicists and engineers of all countries by organizing these periodic conferences on controlled nuclear fusion and by holding seminars, workshops and specialists' meetings on appropriate topics. It is hoped that the present publication, as part of these activities, will contribute to the rapid demonstra- tion of fusion power as one of the world's future energy resources.
