- Fusion power is one of few viable sustainable means of energy production. The tokamak is arguable the most mature technology to magnetically confine fusion plasmas. In these devices, heat and particle transport is dominated by small-scale turbulent fluctuations. Recent advances in high performance computing have made it possible to study these phenomena in detail. The Joint European Torus (JET) is currently the largest tokamak in operation. Recently, the plasma facing components of JET were changed from carbon to metal — beryllium and tungsten.
