Stranica 75 - Xerox Palo Alto Research Center, 3333 Coyote Hill Road, Palo Alto, CA 94304.
Stranica 68 - NRC established by the National Academies of Sciences and Engineering and the Institute of Medicine in 1991.
Stranica 172 - ... in the way of a practical fusion reactor. In our judgment it is too risky at this stage to select and provide specific emphasis on one of the several major concepts. Also, it is too risky at this time to concentrate just on the physics experiments and delay to a later time considerations of downstream engineering problems. Rather, with diligence and good luck we would hope to find one or more acceptable combinations of physics and engineering concepts which would seem to provide viable paths...
Stranica 68 - Statement of Dr. Daniel A. Dreyfus Vice President Strategic Planning and Analysis Gas Research Institute Mr. Chairman. I appreciate your invitation to present a statement to the Committee on the "Electricity Policy Overview.
Stranica 176 - ... devices, and how high a Q can be achieved. The Tandem Mirror Experiment (TMX) (1979) and Mirror Fusion Test Facility (MFTF) (1983) facilities will provide tests for these ideas and may provide answers to these critical questions. If either or both of these ideas succeeds, then mirrors may make attractive energy sources of modest size, capacity and expense relative to Tokamaks. It is also likely that they will be simpler to construct. If the fusion hybrid is considered, the relative simplicity...
Stranica 104 - Richardson's testimony before the Subcommittee on Energy Research and Development of the Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources on March 29, 1979.
Stranica 143 - It is important to bear in mind the very substantial research and development costs that will be incurred as the fusion program passes through the stages of technical development, from demonstration of scientific feasibility to commercialization. Objectives Before outlining the phases of the program, it is necessary to be specific about its objectives. The goal of fusion research in the Department of Energy is to develop the highest potential for employment of fusion energy. The highest potential...
Stranica 65 - ... of atmospheric research and thus fosters effective coordination and helps to prevent overlap and duplication. The committee also advises the council regarding measures that it feels should be taken to advance the progress of atmospheric research in the United States. Last year a special committee, appointed by the National Academy of Sciences at the request of the Secretary of Commerce, reported on The Role of the Department of Commerce in Science and Technology.
Stranica 61 - The two leaders emphasized the potential importance of the work aimed at utilizing controlled thermonuclear fusion for peaceful purposes and, in this connection, advocated the widest practicable development of international co-operation in obtaining this source of energy, which is essentially inexhaustible, for the benefit of all mankind.
Stranica 172 - They came out squarely for the importance of maintaining a broad-based approach to fusion. To quote their report: The strategy which we recommend for the next several years is to pursue fusion on a broad front: broad in the sense of vigorous support to several different conceptual physics approaches, and broad in the sense of an intensive physics/engineering analysis, tradeoffs and experiments to identify and resolve problems which could stand in the way of a practical fusion reactor.
