China Introduces New Testing Device for Producing Fusion

China has developed a superconducting linear plasma device, Crimson Skyblade, that is intended to help scientists test building materials for use in a fusion reactor, the South China Morning Post reported.

“Developing wall materials that are both resilient and resistant to damage is extremely difficult. To test such materials, we need advanced simulation environments,” said project leader Professor Zhou Haishan, with the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
