Spotlight

  • Super Separator Superior separation of nuclear waste: This advanced centrifuge under development at PPPL can deliver faster, more efficient and more economical separation of nuclear waste than standard centrifuges permit.

  • Science on Saturday attracts science fans of all ages Welcome to Science on Saturday – the hottest ticket in town, where 510 people woke up early in the morning on a gloomy Saturday in January recently to listen to a talk on “Visualizing the Atomic World,” by Udo Schwarz of Yale University.

  • A meeting of the minds when NYC °CoolRoofs visits PPPL The cool roof at PPPL was downright chilly when two representatives from New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s NYC °CoolRoofs program came to visit the Laboratory recently. But the meeting itself was warm and could lead to a partnership between the city group, PPPL and Princeton.

  • Arturo Dominguez: a passion for teaching about magnetic fusion Arturo Dominguez is a man who clearly has zeal for the mission of teaching young people -- and anyone else who will listen -- about the bright future of magnetic fusion.

  • PPPL-designed coil critical to experiment arrives in stellar condition Engineers at the U.S. Department of Energy’s Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory (PPPL) have designed and delivered a crucial barn-door size component for a major device for developing fusion power. The component, called a “trim coil,” marks the initial installment of one of the largest hardware collaborations that PPPL has conducted with an international partner.
