Oak Ridge IMP Will Shoot Neutrals at Plasma in a Well Available to Purchase

DCX‐1, for many years a mainstay of controlled‐fusion research at Oak Ridge, is now being replaced by a more broadly based experimental series, known as the “Target Plasma Program.” One new experiment in the program, IMP (Injection into Microwave Plasma), is now being designed; neutral atoms will be injected into a target plasma produced by microwave heating.
