This is the JET (Joint European Torus) reactor, which is the first (and only) device to produce controlled fusion power with deuterium and tritium. The temperature of the plasma generated by fusion is a whopping 100 million degrees Celsius! UK Atomic Energy Authority #CCFE

And so ends a REALLY busy week for CoRWM, who visited Sellafield Ltd, United Kingdom National Nuclear Laboratory and, today, @llwrsite with @rwm_gdf_uk. We've learned much about decommissioning and radioactive waste management challenges across the Nuclear Decommissioning Authority estate. More to follow soon...
