    Nuclear fusion research using neutrons from FRM II

    To advance the development of fusion energy reactors, a new joint research project is being launched at the Technical University of Munich (TUM). The project will investigate the properties of innovative high-temperature superconductors (HTS), which are used to control the extremely hot plasma in the reactor, under extreme conditions. In addition to TUM’s Heinz Maier-Leibnitz Research Neutron Source (FRM II), the Max Planck Institute for Plasma Physics (IPP) and the company THEVA are also participating in the HTS4Fusion project, which is funded by the Federal Ministry of Research, Technology, and Space (BMFTR).

Annual Report 2024 online

The scientific highlights from small iron scavangers in the sea that bind carbon dioxide to new joints for oil pipelines and Nobel Prize-winning quantum measurements with neutrons. In addition to the highlights, the report offers an insight into more publications, the latest research results of the fuel conversion and, of course, all the events of the past year.

Meet our PhDs and PostDocs

Get to know our PhDs and PostDocs better on social media!
On Instagram , Facebook or LinkedIn, they provide exclusive insights into their work on the instruments, talk about their career paths and reveal what inspires them outside of science – from hobbies to childhood dreams. Science up close – follow us and take a look behind the scenes!
