A small Tokamak device for outreach, education and research

Nuclear fusion energy is often hailed as the holy grail of sustainable power generation due to its immense potential to provide clean and abundant energy without producing greenhouse gas emissions or long-lived radioactive waste. One of the leading technologies in this field is the Tokamak fusion reactor.

A Tokamak fusion reactor is a device that uses magnetic fields to confine and control a hot plasma, in which nuclear fusion reactions occur. These reactions release vast amounts of energy, similar to the process that powers the sun and other stars. The key to sustaining these reactions lies in achieving and maintaining the conditions of extreme temperature and pressure required for fusion to occur.

Rideo Systems, a small Laser and Tokamak development business based in Oxford, UK, is developing this cutting-edge technology for education. With a focus on engaging universities, students, and researchers, they aim to educate and inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers in the field of nuclear fusion.
