Talk:Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory

In terms of history, shouldn't this say something about Projects Matterhorn A and Matterhorn B (one was plasma fusion, and the other concentrated on fusion weapons research). Reference: John Wheeler's autobiography

Why no mention of Princeton Large Torus

[1] says

1975:The Princeton Large Torus (PLT) begins operation on December 20. PLT experiments are expected "...to give a clear indication whether the tokamak concept plus auxiliary heating can form a basis for a future fusion reactor.

1978: In July, PLT sets a world record for ion temperatures of 60 million degrees C using neutral-beam heating. For the first time, ion temperatures exceed the theoretical threshold for ignition in a tokamak device. 1981:PLT produces the first tokamak discharge in which the plasma current is driven entirely by lower-hybrid radio-frequency waves.

1984:PLT uses ion-cyclotron radio-frequency heating to produce ion temperatures of 60 million degrees C, a record for this technique.

... i've added a redlink and started a stub with the above. -- Rod57 (talk) 17:28, 7 December 2015 (UTC)

No mention anywhere about the Model C stellarator

Experiments on the Model C stellarator - I'll mention it and try to start stub Model C stellarator - Rod57 (talk) 20:19, 12 December 2015 (UTC)
