Abstract
With the goal of reducing the radiation damage and radioactive waste that will occur in a tokamak reactor using the deuterium-tritium cycle, this paper proposes a new magnetic scheme capable of confining hot and dense deuterium–helium3 plasmas. It consists of two 200-m-long cylindrical plasmas connected by semicircular sections to form a racetrack configuration. The reactor should be capable of producing from 7.8 to 13 GW of fusion power when operating at electron densities of 2 × 1020 m−3, temperature 40 keV, and density ratios of the two reactants from 1:2 to 2:1.

使用D-3He循环的第一代聚变反应堆
摘要
为了减少使用氘-cycle循环的托卡马克反应堆中发生的辐射损伤和放射性废物,本文提出了一种新的磁性方案,该方案能够限制热和致密的氘-氦3等离子体。它由两个半圆形部分相连的200米长的圆柱形等离子体组成,形成跑道结构。当电子密度为2×10 20 m -3,温度为40 keV且两种反应物的密度比为1:2至2:1时,反应器应能够产生7.8至13 GW的聚变功率。
