Heating plasma before squeezing it may offer a shortcut to fusion ignition
ScienceDaily says Princeton lab calculations suggest heating plasma before raising density could help future reactors reach ignition with less energy.
TLDR
ScienceDaily describes calculations from Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory suggesting that heating plasma before increasing its density could help future reactors achieve self-sustaining fusion with far less energy. The reversed sequence may also avoid hidden problems that make ignition harder.
