全超导托卡马克核聚变实验装置东方超环(EAST)近日实现了稳定的101.2秒稳态长脉冲高约束等离子体运行,创造了新的世界纪录。由于核聚变的反应原理与太阳类似,因此,东方超环也被称做“人造太阳”。 Chinese scientists announced they have set a new world record by achieving 101.2 seconds of steady-state H-mode operation of the tokamak, an experimental device designed to harness the energy of fusion. 我国科学家宣布,他们成功实现了托卡马克101.2秒稳态高约束运行,创造了新的世界纪录。托卡马克是一种旨在利用核聚变能量的实验装置。 The milestone meant China's Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), dubbed "artificial sun," became the world's first tokamak device to achieve the 100-second-level, Hefei Institute of Physical Science under the Chinese Academy of Sciences said Wednesday. 中科院合肥物质科学研究院5日称,这一里程碑式事件标志着,我国的"全超导托卡马克实验装置(东方超环)"成为世界首个运行时间达到百秒量级的托卡马克装置。东方超环也被称作"人造太阳"。 东方超环(Experimental Advanced Superconducting Tokamak,EAST)是世界上第一个实现稳态高约束模式运行持续时间达到百秒量级的托卡马克核聚变实验装置,对国际热核聚变试验堆(International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor,ITER)计划具有重大科学意义。 |
