Magnets... how do they work?
The magnet itself is actually known as a "central solenoid." It’ll be used as a superconductor to attain the incredible amounts of heat and pressure necessary to produce nuclear fusion.
The solenoid can generate a magnetic field roughly 280,000 times stronger than Earth’s magnetic field,"Each completion of a major first-of-a-kind component — such as the central solenoid's first module — increases our confidence that we can complete the complex engineering of the full machine,” said Laban Coblentz, spokesperson for ITER.Nuclear fusion has been something of an El Dorado for many scientists over the years.
However, the ITER fusion reactor is slated to be one of the largest reactors out there and many believe it’s one of the more promising efforts to finally achieve the elusive goal of nuclear fusion.
