报告简介：

Scientific discovery is essential to advancing all aspects of humankind. Fusion is the ultimate energy source for humanity. However, the practical realization of fusion energy requires extensive R&D efforts to confront enormous technical challenges. Fusion research has made major advances through important scientific discoveries over decades. International collaboration has also been very strong in fusion research and played a key role in accelerating the development of fusion.

This Lecture will highlight key challenges in the successful development of fusion energy, will give examples of a recent major scientific discovery at UCLA in fusion technology, and will show how an exemplary US/UCLA – EURO fusion collaboration is making major achievements in utilizing this discovery.
